WIP-it Wednesday (April 6th 2011)

Here is my WIPW posting for April 6th 2011. To see more like this please visit tami's amis

This is my first post for the Around the World crochet quilt I am making for a friend of our family (actually a commissioned project to make for a friend to give his wife for her birthday) and it needs to be done before the beginning of August.

Here is the before picture (all the yarn to go into the queen size afghan):
And here is where I am at today:

Maybe I should have put this on a quieter background, but I was too lazy to take the afghans off the bed...  The box has a bunch of little squares (saltines since they look like little saltine crackers) made and ready to sew onto the blanket.

    How wonderful that you are working on a commissioned project. I love it when I know something I made is going to be appreciated, as that afghan will surely be!

    This afghan is going to look great when it is done! I am also working on a small throw that is made of the small 4" squares. It is taking some time to piece it together, but it's going to be beautiful when it's done.
