First of all, here are my latest 4 GAD's. Yes there are 2 different size squares, but I'm doing 2 different afghans and I need different sizes for each of them. :) I can't do just one project at a time, never have been able to do that. lol But that way I don't get bored with the one I'm working on. It just takes a little longer to get it done. LOL
I got this done a few days ago and since my work hours have been a little crazy I haven't had much time to get online, so anyway here is my latest afghan and you guessed it, Miss Daisy is in the picture again. LOL She loves that spot on the couch and she just wasn't about to move....
I did the border in a blue and peach. Since I put the squares together with black I didn't want to do the border with black. But I think it adds character.
I have started putting my GAD's together and I using burgundy for that. I'm actually adding another round and doing the join as you go method. I haven't decided what color the border will be but I might do green, since burgundy and green go good together.
My Squaring the Big Circle afghan is coming along nicely, I've gotten a couple of rows done. I also using the join as you go method for that one too. I'll post a pic of that one in my next post.
Have a happy crocheting day,

Some finished projects
This afghan was made for a friend and co-worker, it is a diagonal stitch made from the bottom corner to the top corner.
This project is a mole. It was a homework project for my youngest son, a few years ago, and yes it was legal for me to make it, but it had to be his idea. His teacher wanted a mole, it could be made anyway and it could be made by anyone, it just had to be the childs idea. So armed with a picture of a mole, this is what I came up with. And I must say it was the first crocheted mole she had ever gotten. So I let her keep it (since my son got a 100 for it) :)
This project is a circular shawl
Hope you have enjoyed these. Now it time to go crochet.Happy Crocheting,

Square 18 and other Crochet
Today's square is.....
I've also been working on this today, I found it in my yarn stash and it is something I started about 2 years ago and it got put away for some reason or another, so I have been putting all the squares together.
See that bump in the bottom right corner? Well here is what that is....
That is Daisy. :) She was not about to move when I put the afghan on the couch to take a picture. lol
I also found a few more finished projects but I'll just show one of them today and show more tomorrow....
Well that's all for today. I'll be back tomorrow with more and probably have a finished photo of my afghan.
Happy Crocheting,
Tracey

Squares 15 and 16, new scarf
Here are my squares for Sunday and Monday.
And here is the new scarf that I made.
I've got 6 squares put together on my "squaring the big circle" and when I get a few more put together I will post a picture. I think they are turning out nice. And I love the way the colors look. Have a great day.

week 2 of GAD and my next project
Hello everyone,
Well I got my week 2 squares done. I still haven't decided what I'm going to do with them, probably add another round of white and do the join as you go method and make an afghan. :) But anyway here is a pic.
Well now thats funny. It put the pic ahead of my post. lol
Now on to my next project. I found this last night while I was blog surfing. It can be found http://signedwithanowl.blogspot.com/2011/06/squaring-big-circle-tutorial.html
It is beautiful. And I got the first square finished last night.
I also got some more squares started. :) I dug out my soft yarn for this afghan. I am going to do the join as you go method with this one, and each square is going to be different colors. I think it is going to be very pretty.
