Pinked out - now what?

Actually, I never get sick of pink. Not that I'm a girlie-girl, I just think pink, and all the different shades and hues, is a very pretty color. If you'd like to see more photos of the finished blanket, here's a link to my listing:

Have a wonderful night!

Note: This pattern is the same as the yellow and white daisy blanket. It is from a book I mention here.

    Thanks SibStudio! It was a lot of fun to create. I think I may have to do another in yellow and white (daisy) on green? It's fun to try new things out. Thanks for stopping by :)

    Love your work! Would you be open to sharing how you created the flowers directly on the blanket?

      Hi Heena, This pattern is from a book I mention here: http://tillietulip.blogspot.com/2012/09/a-great-book.html
      It's the same pattern, I just used one-color blocks and added a simple granny background.

      Hi!I love all your pretty flower 🌸 squares and all the pink! My first grandaughter is due in a few months & I'm excited to finally use pink and flowers for her blanket! I have the same book, and am wondering if you could give me the motif number to save me a lot of page turning? I love your blog!

      Hi Maschelle, the flower motif is on page 158 (motif #114). I've done it in multiple colors, but I also like how it looks as a solid in this patchwork type blanket. Best of luck to your daughter/daughter-in-law with the rest of her pregnancy and prayers for a happy, healthy baby. How exciting!! Take good care.

    I love that you shared how to do the shells on the square for the "flat" daisy! Would you share where to start on this flower? Maybe a picture of the back where you start? Your work is beautiful! Thank you for sharing with us and helping us be better. :)
