Thank you for the nice comments on my blanket. I had fun doing this. It takes about a month (in my free time) to make one. I'm so happy this creature found a good home in Terry's house. Richard has another pattern almost ready. He makes the patterns and I crochet them. It's going to be of Frankenstein. Then, I think he's making Dracula and, perhaps, a wolfman. But I'm not sure yet.

Here is a preview of the Frankenstein image I will use. The pattern has been made. This is a commissioned work so I will start making this quite soon. In answer to questions, it takes me a bit less than a month to produce a blanket. I do so in my free time so it depends. The blanket is completely hand-made by me, start to finish, and I charge $200 for a blanket. I've made many of this size blanket, which I refer to as a lap Afghan. The images and colors have been custom and made-to-order, at times (for example, people have obtained blankets for baby shower gifts).

The Creature blanket was my first monster blanket. This Frankenstein image will be on the next one. These images are a bit more complex than what I've done in the past. However, I can crochet them, with no problem, if I have a good pattern to follow. I think Richard's Frankenstein pattern will turn out quite nice.
Thank you,

I need a monster blanket. Help me, Rhonda, help, help me Rhonda. Sorry for the Beach Boys reference. I couldn't resist. Fabulous work there, a true work of art. Please post the Frankenstein when completed.

I'm nearly done with the Frankenstein blanket. There's a small bit of work to do on the back and then it's finished. I'll post one final clear picture of it before it's turned over to it's new owner.
Thanks for your interest and very nice comments, everyone!
