4th of July Star Lovey

I just love how this project turned out! For the blanket part, I followed the You Are My Sunshine pattern by Cre8tion Crochet, working 10 rows red, 2 rows white, 2 rows blue, and the border round in blue. For the star, I made 2 with white and stitched them together with wrong sides together (pattern below). I used an I hook and Red Heart yarn, mine completed measures approximately 20" square.
