Help me help local communities by creating blocks for Warm Up America<\/a>, by making a block for yourself and one for a community project with this free pattern. I will be creating a new block every two weeks and sharing it with you, I just ask that make one for donation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Warm Up America<\/a> is a nation wide organization that encourages local donations, but will also except donations to be sent to their office so that blocks can be assembled and then blankets can be donated through the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even if you do not want to participate with Warm Up America<\/a>, please consider creating blocks, or blankets for your local community. There are various places in every community that accept donations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Garden Block<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This block features color change, that does not require you to break the yarn. You can carry the yarn up the edge, as the color changes every row, and then finish the sides with edging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was inspired to create this block due to my lack of a green thumb. I try, and I think this season will be different. Yet it always ends the same…with a bunch of brown where I was expecting green.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This block lets me enjoy a little row of crocheted flowers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
