Pretty flowers

I’ve been slowly working on the hexies blanket 
I sewed the final few pieces and it just wouldn’t sit right 

I was getting a tad frustrated and then I saw my mistake. 
In the middle of all the hexagons there was a pentagram 

Now I don’t have anything against pentagrams but this one was giving me all sorts of trouble 
So I had to undo the last few hexagons take out the pentagram 
Replace it with a hexie and sew the rest back on 


After that it sat nicely. The seriously strange part is, I’m surprised I didn’t make that mistake 
More often 

I then decided a row of single crochet would finish the blanket nicely 


And here is the finished blanket 



My first ever make it up as I go along 
I’ve only ever followed patterns 

I’m happy with it. It’s a happy blankie I think 
Who doesn’t like pretty flowers 

Stay safe and well 
See ya

  2. Looks good Angela. The addition of the green ‘leaves’ really sets it off. Just the right size for a little girl to snuggle under!
