New WIPs

Hello fellow hookers!!
 
I have a few new projects that I am working on currently, as well as updating some of the works from the previous post. My bobble blanket has made some great progress! I have learned that this stitch is a real time consuming. I knew that it was going to be a yarn-eater, so I'm not as worried about that. I still have at least 6 blue skeins left so that will last me for a while. It's taking me a bit over 40 minutes at this point to complete one row of bobbles, and then another 15 ish minutes to do the sc row. I love this stitch, but I believe that in the future, I will probably not complete a full bobble stitch item, but just incorporate bobbles into whatever pattern I am creating.
 
My purple flower granny quilt has not made any progress lol. I have not worked on it, because I have been completing other projects.
 
I finished this black and green blanket for my father on Tuesday, 9/23. He recieved it in the mail on Saturday. He loved it! He said the first thing he did was take it across the street and show his neighbors. I love my dad! This is the first crochet item that I have sent to him, but he is sure to start receiving alot more! I love how he cherishes my projects. He went on for about 20 minutes on the phone about how appreciative he was, because he knew the work that I had put into the blanket. He thought it was just beautiful.
 

 
I finished an orange granny square blanket a few weeks ago. I dropped it off at Quilt Beginnings to be donated to Project Linus. It was a very simple blanket to make, and mostly made just so that I could get rid of the orange yarn. I hope the kids like it!
I have also been receiving a ton of orders in my etsy shop! I'll attach pictures of some of the beautiful items I've created over the last few weeks!
