Sneak peek on Afrodite's blanket

Hello friends

the other day we visited Nikoleta, one of our best friends. She is an 8 months pregnant mom - to - be and a great crafter and artist herself. We always chat about our new creations and craft news in general and this time she showed me her new bought book; a sum up of gorgeous DIY of Mollie Makes magazine.

I was mesmerized by the beautiful tutorials and asked her if she would like me to make something shown there as a gift for her baby Afrodite. She immediately said she wanted the granny square blanket she'd seen in there.

I am not one to let a friend down, so here's a sneak peek of my first "squares".

Now, I know you are thinking "those ain't squares hon' those are circles, duh!!!" but I've desided to make all the circles first and then unite them into squares. This is a tip I picked up here along with the sunburst granny square chart. This girl Jenny has made it so very easy for me to make this wonderful pieces!
