This, my friends, is the completed  baby blanket. I finished it just after midnight last night. This is the first afghan that I've made and first large project that I've finished. I'm psyched about that. I usually get frustrated and bored, then toss stuff aside. So I'm really proud of myself for getting this done. I just need to get it packed up and mailed off to the mother-to-be. That means I need to get her address from her when I see her online again.  Hopefully that will be soon so that it doesn't sit around too long. *whistles*

This was done with no pattern other than a basic granny square crochet pattern.  I learned years ago how to make a granny square and this is the same principle.  Just much much larger.  It's one continuous square with two rows of white thrown in to break up the blues some.  I used Red Heart  Shaded Dusk for the main color and Red Heart White for the white parts.  Simple directions, just keep going 'round and round the square until it's 30" or more, depending on what size you want.
