Fluffy Clouds Blanket vs Cherry Blossom Blanket

Surprisingly, my first blanket I crocheted for the baby girl of our friends in 2010 is still a bestseller (second place is Dream Catcher blanket). I received many requests to do this blanket easy adjustable to any sizes up to king size.
So, Cherry Blossom blanket pattern was born.

Now I get questions: what is the difference between Fluffy Clouds and Cherry Blossom blankets?
The answer is bellow 😉:

Have a lovely and fantastic weekend!! 🥰😘🥰
