Shimra,
Love all of these, too...this is art!  <3
They're all great, but my absolute favorite is the Death Star.  It looks soooooooo good!  Did you make your own pattern?
The owl tablecloth is really pretty...I like unusual items like that.
All of your owls are beautiful!  And the dragon and rat are adorable!
That potholder design looks like something I saw in a book.  It was called "Interlocking Crochet."  Not sure if it's the same technique, but it may be similar.  Love how the pattern reverses.
More beautiful work...thank you for sharing this, too!  <3

PS I meant to ask if the 3D blanket was done in 3 different colored diamonds and sewn together?

Thank you Smile  
The Death Star pattern is not mine, I found it online, it's a free pattern found here: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/death-star-2 
I changed the lines tho from that pattern to another one I found on google Smile
Yes, that is exactly how the 3D blanket is done. And I lined the back with cut out fleece fabric.

oh forgot too say about the owl tablecloth. It was really fun to make that one, it's from a portuguise pattern that I don't speak or read, and Google translate don't either apparently as the result was hogwash! lol but she had lots and lots of pics so one could figure it out. 
It's a unusual form on it, and I like that too Smile

Shimra,
I like your Death Star version best of all!
What a great idea, to put fleece on the back of the blanket.  Bet it's nice and toasty in the winter.
The owl tablecloth is sooooo unqiue, and you did a great job for following pictures instead of having a pattern!  I've tried using Google to translate patterns, but that almost never works out.  LOL, I once tried to translate a bead pattern and knew I was out of luck when it started with the translation of "pearls of rubble."  Surprised  Um, no.  Comical, but not a good pattern!  Very Happy
Keep up the great work!  <3  Love seeing what you've done!

Melanie, 
You are too kind <3
The blanket is really warm so it will be perfect for winter Smile 
haha yeah you should have seen some of the things it tried to translate it into, it was really funny actually trying to read it! But yeah totally usless to try and crochet after.

Shimra,
You're very talented!  <3
The blanket is definitely as useful as it is beautiful...which isn't always easy to do!
LOL.  Very Happy  Google translate is a great thing for many uses, but it simply doesn't understand everything.  For things like knitting, crochet and beading, the results can be quite hilarious!  Glad you were able to find something that worked for you and allowed you to make something so incredible.  <3

Totally agree with you!  <3
