3, Working on 4

I decided that I would get the shop involved with Project Linus here locally. I met with the director of the local chapter on Monday and we are now going to be a pick up point and will be sponsoring a monthly gathering. Here are the first 3 blocks of an original design especially for Project Linus.




I'm doing a modular mitered construction (hate, hate, hate sewing things together!) so these are being "joined" as I go. They are actually going to look like diamonds as the blanket is going to be attached to a felted fish pillow. Hard to explain but you will see as I go. Once I'm done, I'll post the free pattern. I also plan to get some blocks done for the Greensburg project. This is a great idea and look forward to seeing more of everyone's work.

Just noticed how my colors match your blog......

I think the blanket is going to be beautiful! I can't wait to see your progress (and the fish pillow). What yarns are you using?

Thank you. What you see is Plymouth Encore. I will use Galway and Kureyon for the pillow as I want to felt it. I just need more time.............
