Show your crafts (WIP or finished)

I finally finished these crochet giant granny square blankets for my cousin's twin boys. I started them in February when my cousin told me his wife was pregnant, the babies were born at rhe end of May and I finished them on Friday night ready to present them at a family party yesterday! They are my first giant squares and first attempt at shell edging. I unravelled and re-did bits so many times and they still warped, but that adds to their uniqueness.View attachment 210104

Beautiful, they’ll love them. One of my granddaughters still has one she had knitted for her when she was a baby, she’s 9 now and still takes it to bed 😊
 
Some of you may remember my post about making a lace wedding garter.
I finally finished it! The lace is about 31 inches and it took 3 years to make.
Hopefully it will get used but there are no signs yet. (My children are now in their 30s!)

Lace making amazes me I have no idea how anyone has the time or patience for such an intricate craft!
 
Thank you, that's what I'm hoping will happen with these two.
I’m sure they will. We still have the blankets that were crocheted for my three. The oldest is probably around 12 years old! That was for my eldest and he was using it up until end last year/early this year. In fact I should get the rest out the loft ready for them to use.
 
Been at this for years, because I keep putting it away for months on end 🙄. Pieced together by machine and quilted by hand. Going to try and get a blast on it this weekend.
