This beautiful baby blanket was styled to mimic a rag quilt. If you're not familiar with rag quilts, you should look them up. They really are amazing and also a basic and easier version of a detailed quilt. Each solid granny square has holes in the shape of an "X" the same way that the stitching would be on a traditional rag quilt square. The light ruffling around each square is sweet without being geared too much toward a girl's blanket. This pattern is easy and contains many pictures. It uses chains, single crochets, half double crochets and double crochets.

Crocheted flowers and hexie motifs are a perfect match. You love these worked up in a rainbow of colors - just join them together for an afghan full of gorgeous blooms.

If joining's not your thing, these motifs stand on their own as placemats, too. Add a few extra rounds with your final color until you have the size you need.
