Crochet Along: Finished Blanket Photos

[Shandeh]

Love all the great photos of completed afghans. I will finish my seaming tonight and hope to get the border done this weekend.

You can do it!

Finally finished seaming and started my border last night. I really hope I can post a photo of my finished afghan by the end of the weekend. Of course, that assumes I'll have the time to finish the border so I guess we'll see..

I'm cheering for you!

Hi, Thanks to all for sharing. It's been a real pleasure reading the posts and seeing all the beautiful afghans. I don't know how you guys and gals find the time for all the posting (with all the crocheting going on!) but I am oh-so-glad you do! So maybe I'll share a bit too.....

Loved reading your story about you and your daughter making the blankets, your design for your beautiful finished layout, and your boyfriend's pride in your work.

Pieces of mine have made many trips to my work since my friend from work is doing the CAL with me. We had been comparing our progress on a weekly basis. A few weeks ago we were avidly checking out borders in the completed blankets thread and our boss walked by. My friend quickly said, "Put up a work screen" which I did. Our boss stopped, looked and said, "What are you two doing?" to which my friend replied, "Analyzing". All was well until she walked from my desk back to her own and there was my blanket piled up in the middle of my desk. Our boss just started to laugh and said, "Oh I see, analyzing"

Love that story!

I have a border on my first complete afghan!!! I love having it on me, I cannot stop feeling it's soft blocks, my little ones love crawling on my lap and cuddling under it, wiggling their feet through the holes.

Way to go! You sound very proud, and you SHOULD be! So sweet hearing how you and your little ones enjoy the blanket.

I am trying to post my finished afghan.

Oh what pretty colors! Reminds me of the ocean!

I thought I was finished, but after seeing lialab's afghan border, I decided to add that to my afghan.

So, I added another sc row and the flowers she described how to make. I don't have anywhere to lay it all out right now, but here's a photo of part of it:
