So it’s time for block 3 already, these blocks are coming round quick!
So sometimes you just see some crocheted loveliness and think one day I am going to have to make that. For me this CAL is definitely helping me fulfil my wish list. I really feel as if I have had this next pattern saved FOREVER so it was a joy to finally make it up.
This square is free (and has been since Mar 2011) on the Crochetville site.
