Well, it’s the last day of the year! Geez, another year in the books of life. I am SO excited that I’m able to start fresh and new… which means a new background for my blog site!
I have to topic I would like to talk about in this blog post: (1) My 336-Day blanket and (2) My 25 Things to Do the Year I Turn 25 challenge
(1) 366-Day Blanket
The year-long journey of creating this blanket showed a true testament of my consistency. It helped me to grow in an area of my life, in which I do exactly what I say I’m going to do. It wasn’t always easy though! There were times where I got lazy and used the same color for each square. There were days that I didn’t feel like doing it, so I didn’t crocheting every day. However, I was determined to finish this blanket and I LOVE how it turned out! I especially love the colors! There some squares that I made that represented how I felt that day/week. I enjoyed creating this blanket and I’m proud of myself *begins to pat self on the back*
You’re probably asking me right now, “Would you do this again?” Good question. Hmmm… ask me in like 2 – 5 years *lol*
