Finished Baby Blanket

Earlier this week I shared with you a baby blanket I was working on.

Well, I managed to finish it in time for the baby shower...

...but just barely.

I finished it the morning of.

The only thing is I got so carried away with the last minute details

 that I completely forgot to take pictures of it.

I hate it when that happens.

It wasn't until I came home after the baby shower that I had a v-8 moment.  

Sometimes there's just too much going on and my mind gets frazzled and I don't 

remember to do everything that I'm supposed to do.

 These are the only pictures I have.

I took these on my phone while I was working on it.

Thank goodness I at least did that or I would have nothing to show you.

 These are my granny squares with the last round in white ready for joining.

 After I joined all the squares I did two rounds in granny stitch.  

For the border I did one single crochet round in blue and a decorative scallop edge in pink.

I think it finished it off nicely.

 I was able to block it before I gave it away so the seams lay nice and flat.  

It was so soft and looked so pretty folded up. 

It's such a shame I didn't take more photos.

The new mom was happy with her blanket which is all that really matters.

It gave me great pleasure to put this together for her.

I hope it serves the baby well and she keeps it for many years.

I would like to invite you to follow me on Instagram.
