Pray for Me, Dear Readers

Remember how I told you I wanted to do a motif from the goth afghan that was the flower from the one and the background of the other? I decided to give it a go for the other lap afghan:

I may do a few with the center being the same color as the petals, just so there’s a little more variety. But we’ll see.
