Voila!!

Finally a new crochet project.....done!!  It seems like it takes me forever to complete a project! 
Well...actually....part of the problem (A BIG PART) is that I lose interest in one project and start on the next project before the current one is completed.  Hmmmm....anyone else have this problem?? 
Judging from the crochet blogs I follow it doesn't seem so. 
Everyone seems to have two characteristics that I envy so much......(a) they stay on task until a project is done and (b) they are wicked fast!!  I always imagine "finger flying crochet"!!  Me??  I am slow as molasses! 

So enough complaining about my inadequacies....and on to the now completed project. 

Voila!!!


It's granny squares!!!  Is this a shock?? ;-)




I actually saw something similar in a Michael's ad earlier this year.  Loops and Threads came out with a few new very bright and vibrant colors, and there was an example use of the new yarn that is similar to what I created above.  I just added another color and also added color to the border.  I really liked how it turned out.  The colors are really eye-popping!! 

And now that I have this project done....it's time to complete another one of my "half-finished" projects! 

Thanks for stopping by and have a great Tuesday!!!
