One reason I love this design is that I can work up these little flower motifs in one morning! They’re so quick, and if I make 36 motifs, it’s enough for a 36×36″ blanket.

I use the Continuous JAYG – link in Design Profile – for this piece to add integrity and also to save time weaving ends.

Fin! This piece is one of my favorites, as the grey background really calls to me. I do love crisp, bright backgrounds, but the subtle colors really keep their cool quality with the grey.
