stephy, I must eat you so that I can absorb your afghan-making powers. Nothing personal, I just want to make epic crochet blankets. :D

Blackmageheart - LOL!!!! THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE! ;-) Just kidding. Thank you though! I feel the same way when I see everyone's awesome cross stitch. I only experimented with cross stitch when I was a kid. I want to again, but I keep telling myself "You don't need to get involved in any more crafts! You have enough!" lol

Tigerlily - The finished blanket is 69" x 58" (175.26 x 147.32 cm) :-)

Thank you everyone! :-) I keep getting requests for Pokemon blankets, so its hard to get new work out. I just received an order through my Etsy shop for one that is requesting 18 Pokemon I don't currently have patterns for. I will be designing the new patterns starting today. Whenever I get it done, I'll post it on here too :-)

Samarin - don't quit, keep it up! When I first started, I was in middle school, and all my squares were ugly and uneven. I had to get the tension down, then the rest is easy. You can do it!
