Dream in progress... part 2

I finished all the two row squares for my Babette blanket. It was fun & easy and I love the colors although I'm having doubts about the red because I kind of feels too 'hard' compared to the other colors. What are your thoughts?
I have a slightly pinkish red color cotton too so I might change to that.
The bigger square in the corner is the next set of squares containing 4 rows. I need 49 of those. I think these will take me a bit longer to make.
I didn't sew in the last thread yet 'cause I don't know if I need it to join the squares together. I have to find out about that.I'll keep you posted on the progress...
And I also want to share a nice feature Artsybeat did on me & my work.
