Summer project picked!

Ok, so after some research and digging in my pinterest boards, I think I finally have decided what I might attempt during our summer trip.
Here is what I looked for in this project: I wanted to make a baby blanket, it had to be crocheted (I have been knitting a lot lately and got a bit tiered of it and I missed crocheting...), I didn't want to mess with long and wide pieces so it had to be made out of many little parts (that way I can just store it in my suite case and assemble it at home), and it absolutely had to be interesting to work with and creative.
So tough to come about...
But I find searching for inspiration very fun, and I even added a couple of beautiful blogs to my reading list...
So without further ado, I would like to introduce to you a beautiful and awesome idea that a very creative seller on etsy came up with...

I think this flower blanket is so sweet, but I wanted to tweak it a bit and make the flowers a bit different... Like daisies for example - blue and yellow, I think it should be pretty!
Or how about these leafs? Although that would be knitting and I would rather crochet...

Or maybe these easy to make flowers... They would come togeather perfectly!

Or these adorable stars! How cute is that? I will just use bigger hook and thicker yarn...

So this is my plan. I am going to take crochet hooks and purchase yarn in Russia. Depending on what they have I will then decide on what exactly this blanket will consist of...
