It's beautiful!!!!!
Your afghan is beautiful Meari... I have 3 of them in my UFO stack and think I'll try to make a New Year's resolution to get them all finished up in 2011. They are all over halfway done and I'm sure if I put my mind, and my hand to it, I could manage without much problem. LOL.... Is yours for a gift or to keep yourself? One of mine I was doing for my youngest son, but I may rethink that now and keep it for myself.. lol.. They will have it all soon enough, think I'll enjoy it here on my sofa a little while? Thanks for sharing,
hugs, Shirley
It looks fantastic, Congratulations
Meari,
Your afghan is spectacular.
Merry Christmas to you too.

WOW how pretty!!! Congrats!!! Are you really going to use it as a blanket? What does the backside look like? Are the stitches showing or does another piece of fabric cover it? I have though about making one before but it's really BIG!!!
