Squares and Blocks
The Arboretum Square is a fun colorful twelve inch Afghan square. It's perfect for blankets, car seat covers, bags, and wall hangings. It can be made in one color or up to sixteen colors. It looks just as good in Ombre colors as it would in Rainbow colors. It goes perfectly with the twelve inch Botanical Garden Square, but could also be paired with one of the five 6 inch afghan squares I also have on my blog.

From the Designer: "This square is gorgeous! It has a decidedly geometrically organized look, like a formal english garden and the color combinations just speak of the blooms in a garden. Of course you can make it in as many or few colors as you like since the square also has nice texture. Pair it with simple solid squares for a truly elegant throw.
