My Great-Grandma (we called her Ga) made me, my sis & my oldest cousin a crocheted blanket when we were little, and we've always called them our 'Ga Blankets'... well, I figured out how to crochet little squares, and got quite skilled with doing double & treble crochet - which is how our Ga Blankets are crocheted, so I have decided that I am going to crochet Gaby her very own 'Ga Blanket'....

have a feeling that it'll take awhile but hopefully it'll be finished at some point during winter (ie over the next 3 months) so she can get some use out of it!

Here is a photo of my blanket:


And Gaby's blanket, so far:
