Another finish!!

 Finally crocheted the last stitches for the edging of this baby blanket, I'm quite pleased with how it's turned out and even though I'm not a fan of neutral colours I'm loving this now that it's finished!
 I decided to finish with a simple double crochet edging and I think it finishes it of beautifully :) Now to wrap it up and deliver it to the mum to be next week :) Woooo Hooo another one crossed of my list!!! MMmmm only problem is they seem to be multiplying and I now have two more baby blankets on my crochet list .....oh well take one off put two on :)
These are the fat 1/4's I sent to Shez for her birthday as well as a covered journal and a cottage thread aptly named "Mill Rose" hehehehe
 These fat 1/4's and threads were sent to Sandra for our birthday swap hosted by Cathy.
These are the fat 1/4's and threads I sent to Maureen also for Cathy's fat 1/4 birthday swap.
These fat 1/4's and threads were sent to Claire, another fat 1/4 birthday participant of Cathy's fat 1/4 birthday swap.
 These fat 1/4's, mug rug and thread were sent to Simone from Cheryll's at 1/4 birthday swap.
and finally these last fat 1/4's, charm pack and  decorative tin were sent to Christine whose picture I borrowed from her blog as I'd forgotten to take a photo of them before I wrapped them up duh!
Lots of birthdays happening in September and I wish all the birthday girls had fantastic days for them :)
