I Finally Finished
The American Flag afghan I was making. I gave it to my daughter for her boss yesterday, and they are both in love with it. I won't lie the stars were a challenge to put on and they aren't in perfect order, but I did my best. I had to enlist my husband's help as I kept getting frustrated with the stars. He was such a trooper and spent his entire Sunday sewing on all the stars and allowed me to scrapbook. 

Here is the final product (TFL)

OCD is not an adjective.  It is not a personality quirk. It is not synonymous with being organized.  It is a complex and debilitating mental health illness that affects people of all ages and walks of life, and is defined by the presence of unwanted, intrusive thoughts and repetitive actions. 💙 I am an OCD warrior and I fight for my son. 💙

Thank you :) It was all pretty simple it's just a ripple pattern. It was attaching those starts that made it more difficult then it needed to be.

I don't know how people find the time to other crafts besides scrapbook! I can barely find the time to do one craft!
