a square a day in May -- cont'd



Continuing with 'A square a day in May', I am trying to find as many spare moments as possible to actually crochet a 12 inch square a day.

Not always happening, but nevertheless here they are:



May 6 -- Victorian Dream Square


May 7 -- April's Purple Passion Heart Square




May 8 -- On the Huh 



May 9 -- Falling Star



May 10 -- Framed Flower




May 11 -- Flowery Square



May 12 -- Grandma's Heart Square



May 13 -- Multi-Colour Flower





Back to finding those spare moments..........

This looks great, I think the most difficult part is self-control :)

Your squares are awesome! I am so behind on mine. I'm having trouble findig the time as well. We are moving in June and I also have a 2 year old to take care of. :)

Hope you have a great day

Looking good. I love the idea of the wonky log cabin. I am sure it is much harder to do than just sewing it. Cherrie

Hi Dawn,
This is the first time I've left a comment on your blog -although I've been oohing and aahing -especially over your current color palette- since February when I took up crochet again after a 35 year hiatus.
You and a handful of other crochet bloggers even gave me courage to start a blog of my own! (And I've avoided doing that for years.)
So, thank you -and your work is beautiful. :)

Lucky you... May 13... I am on May 6!
I will try to catch up :)

I only found your blog May 7 and was totally "hooked"! I love the Monet and went out yesterday and bought some and started a pair of baby "boots" for my granddaughter last night, I have the first one done. I also love this block a day and will do this in the near future, I haven't done squares in years, but this is just too much to resist, and I think I may use the same Monet colors, they are all my favs, too. Love your blog!!!!

The framed flower one is so pretty!

Andi said...

Those are all beautiful. Kudos to you for finding the time. I am in a Ravelry swap and crocheting a 12 in square is not as quick as it seems.
Good luck, can't wait to see them all together!

Anna said...

Beautiful... your work, your pictures, the colors you used, all of it... and I've seen your blog entirely...
Thank you for following my blog.
Have a nice week.

Petunia Pill said...

Your squares are gorgeous! I can't imagine finding the time for a 12 inch square each day! But I really have to commend you for your presentation on your blog. Your "polaroid" framing, the collage of all your finished squares...so clever and sooo gorgeous. x&o, Annette

These are so very lovely! Just wanted to know what you did to make each one the same size? Why I'm asking is when I finished the (pretty big) task of finding all the patterns, I saw that some of them are smaller squares (8 inch and 10 inch, for example). Any help would be greatly appreciated! Kari from Cape Town
