Crocheted blankets, edging, for babies, granny squares

Baby granny blanket!

Hellooooooooooooo!

I’m very proud to show you today my baby granny blanket in all its glory 🙂 Tadaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

This blanket was crocheted with the Nako Vizon …a 100% acrylic yarn with a 4mm crochet hook.

It is made with 48 traditional 4 rounds granny squares joined together as-I-go…

You can find the graphic pattern for the traditional granny square HERE!

And for the joining-as-you-go method, I use Lucy’s wonderful tuto that you can find HERE 🙂

The edging is crocheted with two granny rounds (1 in brown followed by 1 in blue) then a round of my favorite ole-ole border that you can find HERE 🙂 I just love this border and I can’t help my-self using it everytime 🙂

Now I’m taking extreme pleasure in buying boys’s toys 🙂 after many years of princesses and pink stuff 🙂

Like this cute little bear… Isn’t it adorable?

Or these little colorful wood cars …

Before I go today, I want to thank you all for the wonderful comments you leave here. I’m trying my best to write a small thank you to each one of you but sometimes I just can’t… so if I’m not answering you back, do excuse me…I always visit your blog and follow it with my reader but I don’t often have enough time to leave comments 🙁

I wish you a wonderful and colorful day…

Here the weather is soooo hot and sunny I can barely move 🙂

BIG BIG kisses!

Corners of my home, In my craft room

My craft room

Good morning sweeties,

and welcome to my craft room….

Yes, it is done 🙂 … You can see a “before” pic in this previous post

and here is what it looks now….tadaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

My sewing corner…

Big closets on the other side…

Let’s open some of them for you 😉

one for the fabric and one for the yarn…

mmmh I love to look at this pic above 🙂

The computer corner (the computer is not on these pics because I don’t have an internet connection in the room yet)

My craft books…

My crochet books and collection of buttons…

My crochet hooks 😉

and my painting corner…

As you can imagine it is my piece of paradise 🙂

I still have to hang some curtains on the windows (Handmade curtains of course…maybe crocheted ones 🙂 I have a small idea growing on my brain right now 🙂 )

and some paintings to hang on the walls…

and more details to add…

Will show you all the changes I’ll make 🙂

Hope you enjoyed your visit to my craft room…

Hello! It’s me again…

Good morning my sweeties,

It’s been more than a week since I made a proper post here and I’m sorry for not being so present here these days… I’ve been through an awful week when everybody in this house except me was ill and I was the only nurse on board… Both the girls and even Hubby (my super hero 😉 ) were ill and I can not describe for you how crazy it was for me to take care of everybody with my big big tummy … Thanks GOD today we are all better and slowly recovering …

I want to show you today some progress I’ve made to my baby’s blanket….

All the squares are done 🙂 Youpiiii! I still need to join them together with a 4th round in brown 🙂

I’m loving so much this blanket …

and can’t wait to show it to you done 🙂

I’m really really BIG now…and I can hardly move … I feel like my tummy is like a BIG balloon which will from one moment to another explode like a bomb 😀

My craft room is almost done 🙂 It is now my favorite place in this house…

Can’t wait to show you all the “before and after” pics and there is a lot!!!

Have to go now…

Take good care of yourself sweeties

and see you very soon!

KISSES!

Internet problems

Hello!

Two days ago the internet was cut from all our country and until now the connection is still very very slow…I just can’t check my mails, send or receive any 🙁

I am so sorry for this …

Please, to all the lovely friends who ordered a pattern and did not receive it yet, I ask you please to excuse me and just wait a little longer for your PDF files! I did not forget you but I just can’t send any pattern right now due to the bad internet connection 🙁 and this problem is making me crazy!!

Thank you so much for your understanding …I hope this will be fixed very soon …

Kisses!

Crocheted coasters, granny squares, Love Birds, wips

Adding more squares…

Good morning my sweet friend,

Yes, I’ve decided to add more and more squares to “Love Birds” and make it a double bed spread for our room 🙂

Your comments really lifted me up and gave me the courage to make a bigger selfish blanket 🙂

Thank you for your support and your kind words … They always make me feel better and so blessed!

Wishing you a beautiful sunshiny day

P.S: To Dorothy Hermes: Yes, I make 1 chain in each corner… I’m following this pattern to make my squares 😉

To Marie Kiki: J’utilise une laine appelee Nako Vizon qui est 100% acrylique et que je trouve ici a Beyrouth avec un crochet de 4mm!

To all the talented ladies around the world who are crocheting big blankets and bedspreads: I’m sending you a Big HUG and all the courage you need to finish such big projects 🙂 I’m always thinking of you while I’m crocheting 🙂 Kisses!
