I am being careful, there is a lot of things I want to get straight before we do marry. So far we get along great and I get along great with his kids and they like me. But I don't want to get married real soon, still want to wait for a little while longer.

I want to let everyone that wanted a Betty Boop pattern, know that I did the whole afghan without a pattern. I made it up as I went along. Totally by trial and error. Let me say this tho...I crocheted the whole afghan with single crochet stitches first. Then I decided what pictures I wanted to use and searched the internet for pics of Betty Boop and there are plenty of them to choose from. The rest was embroidered letters. It isn't easy to get the spacing correct so that the afghan looks balanced... lines long enough or short enough spaced evenly , etc. Sorry I don't know what else to say...except good luck and please post your afghan if you tackle it. Just use your creative mind and you may surprise yourself!!! Love, Patty/redhead

I am just curious... Has anybody else tried to make a Betty Boop afghan? I am sorry about the "no pattern" deal. I would be happy to share the pattern if only there was one. It took from November to April for me to get them crocheted to my satisfaction. Actually I finished the 4 pillows in my bedroom after the others went to bed while I was visiting my nieces. I wish my wrist was well enough for me to get back to crocheting, but I am able to work on plastic canvas while I am recooperating. Love to you all, Patty/redhead
