I've had some Charles Craft baby afghan fabric for a while now, but haven't known what theme to dd o. I recently got a floral chart in an exchange on here, and I love it!

Here is the pattern I got:

I am using Dinkey Dyes silks that I had from an Oops Bag, and have been just using which ones I think are closest to the suggested color. I just finished the A today

It reminds me of like a cucumber for some reason lol or just fresh things

I love it! You know how much I love afghans! This is so pretty and using the Dinky Dyes is a great idea. I love A can't wait to see B (and the rest of course)

I love that!! Such a great use of the Dinky Dyes...and a very different way of forming the letters too!

That looks fun!

Lovely start, and I like the idea of the colours being completely unique.

A lovely idea to use a floral alphabet on the afghan and the "A" is beautifully done. Looking forward to seeing your progress with this.
