It is done!! This is an afghan pattern I got in Annie's Scrap Crochet Club. (Which I am no longer subscribing to for a long time now...) I don't know *exactly* when I started this afghan. I was going through old blog posts trying to find it. Then; Ha!, I found
this picture in photobucket, which was around the same time as
this post. But I the first time I blogged about it was
here. Sooo... I probably started this afghan in February of '06. Which makes it less than three years it took me to finish it. (Makes me feel a *little* bit better... for some reason I thought it was right after we had moved to Colorado...) Anyway... This afghan is HUGE!!! I couldn't even lift it up over my head. I asked my husband, 'Lift it up over your head so I can see how long it is' and he lifted it up over his head (he is six feet tall). I measured it and it is 86" long x 54" wide! I think this is the biggest afghan ever for me. (No wonder it took me so long to finish~ lol...) ;)
Heres' a picture of the diamond in the middle.
And the rest of the colors to the corner. Each corner is the same. I stayed up til about 11:30 last night to finish this. I was so close, I couldn't stop! ;-D Well that's one big HUGE project I can cross off my WIP list. Woo Hoo! My kids and my husband both said 'What are you going to work on now?' LOL!!! I said 'Oh I have a lot I can work on' My husband said '200 projects?' I said 'NO' '100?' 'no...' '20?' 'Maybe...' :P I think it's more like ten. I am getting a handle on it though. Yay me.
