Ginny’s Grannies CAL part 6 is here! This month we finish the third side of the outer section granny squares. Motif 23 was so fun to design; it drove me a bit batty, but it ended up so cool. There are some really nifty motifs in this group. I hope you enjoy making them as much as I enjoyed designing them.
