lil, you did a great job with those squares!

 

Thanks so much for posting those pictures!

 

crocrazy, you can get the book at any book store. I got mine from my mother for Christmas last year. She got it at A.C. Moore with a discount coupon. Many online sellers have it, too.

Lilmari, your squares are great!!

 

Crocrazy, I got my book online at amazon, it was a pretty good price, too.

 

I have made a few more squares and took some pictures (which are not great, sorry but my camera is on its last legs it seems). You can see them here on my blog.

 

Thanks for looking!

Sorry, I channel Aretha whenever I see your name!

 

I love those squares you chose for your center. It's going to be awesome!

I got the book:clap Now I'm struggling what to make. I'm overwhelmed. Maybe I will make them "all." Everything looks good in shades of purple right?!

 

I'm finishing up on another afghan I started last year. So, I will be ready some time after the holidays.

Hi q8 crochet! Welcome to the 200 Blocks CAL! We've been busy with the Christmas holiday, which is why it has been quiet.

 

I've been trying to see your squares, but can't see any pictures on your website.

 

What kind of help would you like?

[Twinnish]

q8, here are some links to web pages that can help you with joining:

Take a look at the different joining methods on these links. I like to use the whipstitch, which is very simple, but I need to try others!
