the april square for my square-a-month blanket for bundles of joy is completed:
it didn't turn out exactly as i envisioned... there were less of the darker blues left than i thought (all but the navy blue is from my first ripple afghan) i threw in a little navy there at the end (from my march ripple afghan) but still, it's not quite right in my mind. but i hope once it's mixed in with the other eight squares it probably won't look so odd.
three down, six to go!
in other news: eight years ago today in an abandoned lot in austin, tx the best cat in the entire world was born.
happy birthday to my sweet sweet pippin!

oh happy happy birthday sweet pippy! he's eight already? gee, time flies! i hope he gets a special birthday treat today.
love your third square! i think blends really nicely with the others too. do you already have all your yarn lined up for the next six squares or are you just figuring it out as you go? looking great!
