3D Heart Granny Square Baby Blanket – Free Crochet Pattern

Hi guys, It’s been a long time since I’ve been gone. I had so much to do with my work and can’t find time to finish my crochet projects. I had a long break last holy week and I was able to finish the video tutorial and written pattern. I have made this 3d heart granny square baby blanket for my 5 month pregnant belly. Yes I’m expecting my second baby and I really think it’s a girl. I’ve had my  ultrasound exam but the doctor can’t tell its gender because its umbilical cord is blocking it. I just hope it’s a girl. I’m just so excited to have a new baby in the family. I can’t wait to see my baby with this blanket. This is my first crochet blanket pattern and I’m glad that it turned out great. I hope you liked it too. What do you think about my 3d heart granny square baby blanket? Please tell me in the comments section below.
