The Squares are done and ready to join together… My grandson was the recipient of my First True Colors Afghan… This one is slightly larger… Eli’s was a total of 35 – 6 inch squares…This one is 48 – 6 inch squares… His turned out the perfect Twin topper… Depending on how I join this one… it should top a full size bed…

On another note… I only have 2 more Granny Squares to finish up my True Colors Afghan,,, I will post the pictures tomorrow!! Then,,, The joining… I am trying to decide my method… I have two ways… A simple SC in the back loops of each block, creating a window pane effect on the back,,, OR a Flat Braid method… Also very nice… Well,,, I will decide that when I lay it out!!

So here is to Elk Studio and Her Great Designs,,, and Finishing up my True Colors Afghan!
