Crochet - Baby Blanket

A couple i work with are expecting their first child in August.  They know they are expecting a boy, which made choosing colours easier.  

I wanted to do a little blanket, but wanted it to be a bit more interesting than just a normal granny square blanket. 

So, I made one big granny sqaure for the centre and surrounded it with little ones each with a different pattern - no two patterned squares on this blanket are the same. 

I then found a lovely little pattern for an owl applique and made two of these for the middle.  

Here's hoping they like it!
