notes
- this ended up being way too wide and way too long - I underestimated how much wider the crochet border would make it and I didn't account for the stretch factor with the length. I guess I didn't think seed stitch would be that stretchy - especially with the crochet all around.
- burnt a small spot when I was ironing on the velcro... couldn't help it. David proposed to Donna and my attention was obviously pulled away from ironing.
