blanket of the stars

It began as a simple project of a star-shaped blanket... and then it grew a bit ..to the size that lenghth around the star just got too long to keep me interested in crocheting further
Well one star is just big enough to cover my babyboy during naptime, but as he is growing so should this blanket! unfortunately I get bored going round the star so now I have 4 stars the same size for one almoust rectangle blanket :) 
I made about a million different sized and colored circles and started to fill the gaps between stars - this is SO much fun!!! 
If you are interested I can show you how I add the circles with lots of step by step pictures, but for now enjoy the unfinished look of blanket of the stars! ;)


The only downside to this is that I need a lot of space and alone time to do this, otherwise Oliver tries to hide underneath the stars or to "help" me crochet .. so it's a project I can do during my babyboys naptimes .. and I can no longer read a book while crocheting :D
Happy crafting to you too!
