Graph ghans

 Most of us wants to gift personalized gifts to our near and dear ones. Especially when its a gift to a new born its even more special. Afghans and lapghans are always very helpful to wrap the newborn to make them feel warm and cozy and when its a cold place, the use of lapghans and afghans are more.

I always wanted to make lapghans. I'm going to start this year with a try on that. I have a big list of images that I want to try. But I am yet to decide which one will be first and how far I am going to be successful in trying it the right way. So fingers crossed and keep watching for me to brag  all about my first try on these lapghans :D Hopefully its this year ;)


Making personalized image lapghans and afghans first need to be converted to graph charts. There are so many methods to do this. I'm going to list them here so that its helpful to me and you as well.
