Now that I finished my oversized crochet baby blanket, it's time for me to get serious about my other crochet project, the 200 Crochet Blocks for Blankets, Throws and Afghans sampler throw that I am making for our daughter. I've completed seven more blocks since my last update.
I had the most fun making the Alternate Bobbles. I have never been able to knit bobbles for some reason, and I was pleased to find out how easy they are to make in crochet. Love that! I think there may be a crochet bobble scarf in my future.

On a separate, Blogger note: I am quickly running out of free space on Picasa. In fact, I had to go in and delete some unused photos from my web album in order to upload these pictures. Anyone have good advice about how you dealt with this? Do I just have to suck it up and purchase additional space? I am super cheap, so I hope not.

I am trying out Photobucket as a replacement for Picasa, so I am adding in this photo of the Dahlia square to see how it goes. The square reminds me of commercials I used to see for Outback Steak House's blooming onion. Photobucket allows you to store photos and then upload them with the url. So far, this seems like a free solution.
