Last night I took part in February's Friday night with Friends. What a great idea and thanks to Cheryl for organising it. It definitely motivated me to stitch. So what did I achieve, Well....
I finally gave in to the urge to join the Granny Brigade.
I love Granny square bankets and still remember my Nan crocheting many blankets for all of her grandchildren. She taught me to crochet, although I havent for years, another urge I am trying really hard to ignore. One day I will make a crochet blanket of Granny squares though, it is only a matter of time...
Until then i can admire blankets like this one made by Carina-
But for now I am content to take part in The Great Granny Along and make quilt blocks. So last night I made three blocks.They were lots of fun and I love seeing how they look when finally put together...
The all blue block is my favourite so far, which one do you like best??

Very pretty blocks Cathy. The blue and red is my favourite but they all look good together. The crochet cotton colours are divine these days......another project for the list.
Very nice I like the all blue one as blue is my favorite colour.Hugs Mary xx
I love them all Cathy, great job.
Very nice blocks but I'm a red girl so thats the one I like the best.

Lovely blocks Cathy...I like the top one but they are all gorgeous....
They all ook great. Very hard to choose a favorite. hugs
I can't choose either. I guess we'll get to see the full effect when you finish a whole heap of them. One thing's for sure; the white makes all of them pop.
Love your Grannies. Be sure and join the flickr group! I'm going to try to finish piecing mine today. Then was thinking of doing one in the fabrics I'm going to give away in our February giveaway.
Cheery wave!

Gorgeous blocks Cathy,I too have been watching with interest all the scrappy quilts being made up using this method/block :) Barb.
They are beautiful Cathy. I made a small granny square quilt last year. It's a great way to make the blocks.
Love these blocks they look great.
The granny square block is very tempting. Yours look fantastic in those colours.
Love your block and your grany square.
