8/13/11: Making a note that I am picking this up for the War Against WIPs meme. When I stopped making this, I had 16 blocks left. I now have 11 left.

My first afghan. Well, the first one I might actually finish, anyway. I picked the colors to look like the trees in autumn.

Instead of doing the border in the lightest color like the pattern suggests, I end that color the same as the others and do the border in a matching gradient I found. Hopefully it turns out alright.
