Thanks, Cara and Shaylen...and I got some more squares today. DH just rolls his eyes.

 

Shaylen, that looks incredible!! You're doing great.

[QueenOfCrochet]

Shay~That is gorgeous, great job! You work really fast.

[Skysmom]

Would love your opinions on my Baby Blocks! I've thought about using four of the patterned blocks and using solid 2 1/2" squares as a border, or sashing, around each block and as a border...then crochet a narrow finishing border around the whole quilt.

 

Or maybe I should make the actual pattern and it will be bigger as the little one grows up? I do like the solid blocks between the others - it looks like most quilt patterns I've done. Thanks for "listening.":manyheart

Okay. Here is my progress for this week. 1st half of 1st block fully assembled, followed by this weeks progress on the second half of that block. It ain't pretty or neat, but it is progress. Hehehe!

 

 

Next is this week's preemie blanket, followed by the first 2 squares of the Crib Afghan that's going to be taking up most of my crochet time in the next several weeks.
