Motif-a-Day: Day 16 ~ Bloomin'

Hey Everyone!

I enjoyed a very relaxing Monday today! 

Today was a BEAUTIFUL day in the neighborhood. 60 degrees, mostly sunny...windows were open! Aslan was a very happy camper. We recently moved our sofa right in front of the big window in our living room, and it is his new favorite spot since he can see everything going on outside. And when the widow is open it is so fun to see him enjoy sniffing up all of the smells. 

I crocheted for a while before I had to pack myself up to go for the day. I created my motif for the day (another idea that I had for Willow's blanket), and organized my yarn and put-together motifs for the Enchanted Motif design. Any guesses what this new design may be? :)

And now...for the winner of the Motif-a-Day Giveaway...

Congratulations Sasha Kennedy Farnsworth! I got in touch with her over the weekend and she chose Ardor, Harmony and Svelte Motifs as her prize - all very good choices in my book ;) If you didn't win, never fear, I am planning another giveaway very soon!

And now, today's motif!

Today's motif pattern is another idea that I'm playing with for Willow's baby blanket, as I said. I wanted to create something that had a more 3-D effect flower. 

I am planning on re-shooting these pictures tomorrow. I was having technical difficulties with my camera equipment tonight (ahem, rechargeable flash batteries, I'm pointing at you!) and struggled a bit to get any kind of true color representation. But...you get the idea of the motif, and that's all that matters right? Who cares about pretty pictures...(besides me?) (that was sarcasm. everyone cares about pretty pictures!)

So, that's all I've got for you today folks!

Happy Crocheting!
