crochet an afghan

I found a pattern for a bedspread in a crochet book. It’s all white, so a completely different direction than I was heading- but more in keeping with my soothing, peaceful, simple home.
So, now I have to buy yarn, and crochet 110 8 inch squares.
no problem. I can do anything.

I think I know what I want my afghan to look like- and I think I want it to be a bedspread. While looking for inspiration in pattern books and websites, I discovered anigurumi- super cute Japanese crochet dolls, and I really want to make one or tow of those- maybe a bunny for Easter.
I also found a sweater pattern in the book Stitch n’Bitch- the Happy Hooker, which I have started. So, the future blanket finds itself deprioritized.

I have lots of yarn leftover. I need something to do while I quit smoking, since I think I mostly smoke out of boredom. So I am thinking of a border of 4 inch squares, or circles, multicolored, and a large field of one color, probably brown. Or whatever I have enough of, or is on sale. :)
