Motif Afghan Reviewed by lisa on 2010-12-21 *****
I made this with my own choice of colors. I enjoyed making it and fell in love with it as soon as it was finished because it turned out so much more beautiful than I could have imagined. I'm already thinking of making another - this time in pinks for my daughter.
