If inam correct you used a DK weight yarn for the patchwork blanket. What size crochet hook did you use? Also, how has it held up with the join as you go method? I desperately want to make a blanket like this for my bed, but my granny squares always seem so open. Any pointers on getting such small holes?
Thanks, love your blog!

I have just been looking at eBay Crochet Patterns and i think someone is selling what looks like your pattern.
The name is scoop0710 and the person is in Blackburn,Lancashire.
The sale is up in an hour so I should look as soon as you can.
I'm sure it's your bag photo, therefore your pattern.
If you go to Crochet Patterns you will find it.

This is just the right time of year to have three things that make your heart go skippy! and a fresh flower in February would certainly do the same for mine :) Thank you for sharing your colors and cheer ~ looking forward to your Tah-Dah!

I've been in a bit of a crochet slump the past couple of months...but visiting your blog always makes me feel happy and more inspired. Your color choices are brilliant! xoxo

I love seasonal rituals - yours are so pretty.
And, I just LOVE that wee painting. I bought a couple of canvases at Hobbycraft over Christmas when they were on sale - ooo, I think I might tackle a still life - thanks :)

OMG, I adore your painting. I am quite simply a sucker for primitive folk art ... I'm off to have a peek at Natalie's website right now - thanks for the intro lovely

ooo I'm just coming to the edge of a blanket and I love your edging! Can't wait for the instructions - I've been trying to work it out from the photo without success. It looks very clever.

Came by your blog when i googled "how to make a caravan cosy",and I was hooked. Just love the diary element and am enjoying all your creations,
I am surrounded by neutral everything and have been seduced by your rainbow of colour and bought red/green t towels and a red spotty tray,
Family in a state of shock!Only just started LOL

You have such a great eye for color - the border looks great! I can't wait to see the whole afghan. My heart is skippy-happy every time I look at my neat ripple afghan I just finished a few days ago. I have it draped over the back of the sofa so you can see it no matter where you are in the room. And the tin covers I made for my herbs make me happy, too. And all because of you. Thanks!
