Pretty Little Flowers Granny Square

Thank you sooo much to anyone who completed my square, this was my absolute first try at writing any pattern and it as everyone on my instagram knows, I love granny squares so it is just a little bit special to me :)
If you have made this up and are sharing it, please share with me so I can see it and like it @raineyscrochet, or share it through #raineysgrannysquares
I am hoping to make lots more granny patterns and hopefully as time goes on I will have enough for a lovely big blanket, so keep an eye out on my instagram for when I am releasing more.
