Over the weekend I worked up this 5 inch Crochet Rosie Posy Flower Square. I turned the square into a twelve inch afghan block design but my original design worked up wavy so I had to edit the larger block from this original square design.This square would look so pretty with a variegated yarn for the flowers or even colour changing flowers. I only designed the square so I don't have a tutorial on how to join them but you can check out these 12 different ways to join rounded up by Craft Passion. http://www.craftpassion.com/2014/07/12-ways-to-join-granny-squares.html/2
