Wedding Afghan

This has been a crazy, crazy productive crafting year for me. This is the afghan that started it all in 2010. My highschool best friend got married in January on a cruise, and they held a lovely reception back home a few weeks later. Knowing that the beautiful bride is a huge fan of purple, I set out to see what I could do.

This beautiful afghan is the result:


The details:
This pattern is from a book called "Old Fashioned Quilt Afghans" by Annie's Attic. The pattern is called 'Diamond Puff'.

The yarn is 2 shades of purple and 1 shade of beige - I can't recall the exact brand of yarn. The squares were pretty quick to make and it moved along nicely. Hope the happy couple can enjoy it for years to come.

And I seriously love the afghan so much. I am honoured that you took so much time to make it for us.
