Persian Tiles Eastern Jewels Blanket

 I love everything about this blanket.  OK, well not everything.  More on that later.



As it turns out, this pattern is a few years old now and nothing new.  Inspired by Truly Potts I decided to design my own version of the square and triangle infills.

Sounds a lot easier than it actually was!  Anyway, I got to something that I was happy with.

I also changed the border pattern and created my own adapting the Whipsiderry Border to fit my blanket.

I absolutely adore this blanket but have to say I would not do another one in this colourway.  The amount of ends, hundreds and hundreds that had to be sewn in was just beyond! 

The next thing to decide is what do I do with it?🤷🤔

And finally, seasons greetings to one and all!💗

Crochet Projects

 Hello, long time no see.😂

Where does the time go?

Anyway, this is what I have been doing.



This is a project bag I made from previous practise squares.  However, I realised too late that I should have lined it as I kept losing hooks and things out of the holes.  Oh well......


And yet more practise squares turned in this.

Now all these squares, small and large, were supposed to fit together in a fabulous pattern.  Mine turned out in all sorts of sizes but I managed to join them; sort of!😂   I do love the popcorn stitch edging though!💗
