The Bunco Blanket

Just a quick introduction to the latest blanket I'm undertaking.  I have chosen six colors thus far (actually they were for another project :0) and am working on a pattern.  So far, I've completed 1 square and am working on a 2nd. I'm trying to make this blanket using two different types of granny squares so I can make it up quickly, but still have some visual interest.  I LOVE the little sunburst square and I'm a traditional granny fanatic so I'm wanting to use them both.  I'm currently working out the details!!

Each year, our local Rotary Club (of which I'm a member) sponsors a Ladies Bunco Tournament to raise scholarship funds for local high school seniors.   You can read all about the game of Bunco HERE.  Door prizes are given, major prizes are won, and there is always much laughter and fun had by all.   Traditionally, the tournament is held in the fall; however, because our fall bunco night was so successful, we decided to host a second this spring.  My contribution is going to be a blanket--hence the name.  

I don't know that I will stick to these colors, add more, take some away . . . what I do know is I have 5 weeks to figure it out and get it done!  

Wish me luck!!
