Really pretty. I can't wait to give it a try.

Great square! I love the 12" (I'm one that voted for more!) and I also needed 8" for some charity afghans I'm working on, as well as some for family. So, this square does all of it, thanks! I really appreciate you sharing your patterns!
Marie
Great Square. Thanks for sharing the pattern. I'm working on a sampler square afghan and this will be perfect.
Hello; my name is Doris, I'm a disabled RN with
a disabled husband (stroke)--crochet lifts my spirits so much, I think I may be a crochetaholic! I found your blog via Ravelry; I was here once before some time ago, I cannot recall when, but your patterns are just lovely!
I do not think I signed up as a follower as I am not the most dependable person....I am not in good health and some days are bedridden, so I always fear that I might let someone else down if I cannot fulfill a promise (like to test a pattern for you) I've made.
I am so thankful for you and your website---I don't know how many other crocheters are also disabled and relatively homebound (I do get out on occasion and do still drive on my "better" days)---but for those of us who are---to find a bright and happy place like your website, and see the creativity you share so generously with others---well, it can make any day joyful!
Thanks so much, and all the best to you!
I will return again one day.
Take care,
Doris

Hello, My name is Carolanne Perez and I belong to a grop online called Heartmade Blessings. I made this square using Red Heart's Super Saver in aran and burgundy. This square will be among the 12 that will be assembled to be sent out to someone who has a tumor in her lung. I will be using a lot of your squares and thank you for designing some beautiful squares. Whatever size your design is fine with me. I turn each one into a 12" square.
