All NEW Construction Crew pattern set – 4 machines, 2 pre written blanket patterns (one-piece and a granny joined version) + all the individual blocks to make whatever combo of machines you want.
This design was a remake and improvement of my early designing days. These machines are BIGGER and much more detailed. PLUS you get all 4 in ONE pattern.
I’m happy because the 9yo is VERY pleased to have his new blanket, for which he chose the colors.
Alright…on to the showcase! Below you can see all the SUPER colorful versions my testers created for their Construction Crew blankets. Another fabulous group of testers with really great projects!
