I just finished this garden afghan for my cousin as a wedding gift. His wife says she just loves it. (I just want to mention-- I HATE piecing MOTIFS)

Thank you for all your wonderful comments. I love showing my work to other crocheters who appreciate how much effort goes into a piece.

Love you guys!!! HUG!!:grouphug

Oh and Pam.. yes, she is an active little dog. SHe would rub her nose raw if I let her play long enough. Funny, I didn't even realize she was in the pic until you pointed her out. guess I've learned to turn her out at times!! :)

I realize that you posted this about four years ago now, but I've been trying to find this pattern, and wonder if you could point me in the right direction with the name, etc. so I can find it. It's beautiful. Thank you.
