A New Baby Afghan

My eldest daughter's teacher recently welcomed a lovely little girl into her family, and I am making her a beautiful afghan from hexagonal crochet motifs. This is the center, as of now. I may make more of these depending on how the design comes together. I am making it up as I go along.

Upcycling a Rug

I saw an interesting article on Pinterest about upcycling, so I thought I'd give it a try. This particular rug was crocheted from a full sheet I bought at Goodwill for $2. I will add more photos as I continue to embellish this rug with a colored border and flowers for my big girls, per their request. I have two more sheets, so I think a larger, perhaps rectangular, rug is also in the works.
