    I have been crocheting granny squares for 50 years but have never seen the pillow done on a diagonal but you can bet I’m gonna give it a whirl! You are just so creative! And fortunate to have a family rich with talent! Love it and love hearing all about it! Thank you dearly Lori! I’ve learned so much from you!

    Lori, I just wanted to say how much fun I’m having with Great Granny Squares. I’m making the quilt, and I’m about half way done. I’m looking forward to the new quilt Alongs, and I love Scrapiness is Happiness. All the quilts are so nice. I have to thank you for including shades of purple in Prairie and in Bee Vintage. The shades of purple are just perfect. Thank you for sharing your talents with all of us.

    I had all of my color rounds finished by June first. I have been slower doing the outline and stitching together. I would take a color and make 3 centers then do 3-row two on other random centers then 3-row 3 on random squares and so on. All of your colors make every block look fantastic! I didnt think I just grabbed and stitched!

    Hello from NC Lori, thank you for sharing your talent for crochet with us. My wonderful Mother taught me to crochet when I was a little girl, and like her, I’ve always loved crochet. My Mother crocheted beautifully and taught me well. When I crochet, I can feel Momma still sitting next to me. I miss her every day. I love how beautifully your Chunky Yarn crochets. I also love that it is cotton. Thank you for inspiring us.

    Do you know when your chunky yarn will be back in stock? Either in your Etsy shop or at Fat Quarter Shop? I want to use all the colors but I am missing a few so want to wait until I have all the colors before I make the rest of my granny squares. Also need to get lots of the color I use for the 5th round.
