I had last Friday off from work (yay long weekend!), so I decided to use the extra day to go go visit my grandma who lives 2 hours from me. I left Thursday night after work, spent the day Friday, and came home Saturday morning (I had a Pampered Chef Party to go to in the afternoon). Together, we fumbled our way through the directions in my knitting/crochet book, figuring out how to make granny squares. I got the hang of it pretty well, and I've made 5 more squares since.
(I forgot my digital camera, but I also forgot that Grandma has one, and so we took these pictures of each other, Grandma printed me copies on her hp photo printer, and I downloaded them to my laptop.)
I had great fun having a little bonding time with my Grandma!

grandma's are awesome :-D I love hanging out with mine!
I didn't' cry during August Rush, but I blame my friends being around for that. It was definitely one of the best movies I've ever seen!
Let me know ahead of time the next time your in town. I will teach you how to do the 6 sided granny and the three sided granny. They make awesome blankets... very unique. You can also make a great throw blanket by making 2 granny centers, sewing them together to make a rectangle... then work a normal granny around it. Makes a rectangular afghan nicely. I will post a pic of the granny ghan I made Bryan.. size of our queen bed. He loves it, not too hot to use like some other blankets. I started on grannies first then learned how to do tons of patterns from grannies.
