So then I put a cattle trough there (with her agreement) but it didn't fill the space, was on slope and never looked right.
So I reinstated her original wall, and Raphael came and built it yesterday, with the help of Harvey, a young Frenchman, who did all the fetching and carrying - despite having a bad back from lifting concrete blocks for a swimming pool the previous day!
It is fabulous, and now looks like this...
Continuing the Warr Effort
I have done some more squares for Max's blanket, although it is slow going. Here is a picture update!
Only 21 squares so far, and I'm not sure how big to make it eventually. If it was 10 x 10 that would be 100 squares, and currently I would be almost 1/4 the way there! Not sure I have enough yarn for that!

The wall and the blanket both look great to me. If it were me I think I'd make the blanket a small rectangle and then if I had enough yarn do another row of squares on one long and one short side to make a slightly larger one and then again the same if yarn permitted. Whatever size you do it it's lovely.

That wall does look better, and will give you a bit more privacy, I imagine.
I love the wall, it has a real rustic charm that makes it so photographic and yet is so very practical. Well done!
The blanket is gorgeous, are you joining as you go? I have tried to work how to do that at Attic 24 but I still don't get it!
Have a good day!
