My creative space #5.....




..... Nearly finished!!!!!! Today there is a lot of creating on the agenda. I want to finish blocking the rest of my granny squares (48 of them) and start sewing them together. I am going to crochet one more round on each square and join them together as I go, never used this technique but hope it goes ok.



Also going to make a few more of these flower squares, I think they are cute and might make a nice little cushion for my niece.

My 10 year old son Max was sitting concentrating for quite a long time and this is the drawing he was working on. I was impressed with the level of detail he drew, it looks like quite an epic battle between the dragons and people, only disturbing thing is all the red pen blood! Do love the 'Deathinator' airplane, such a boy thing to draw. My nieces draw fairies and flowers and rainbows, my boys draw battles and weapons. Go figure.

  2. Beautiful squares, I hope the joining is smooth going. My 10yr old draws similar "boy" things. I chalked it up to being an Army brat but maybe it's just normal regardless haha...

  8. My granny blanket has become an epic adventure involving great end-weaving-in torture and post rationalised join-as-you-go. Yours is going to be the bees knees.

    Bummer about all the blood and carnage. But at least the imagination is on FIRE!
