For the love of Granny Square Stitching but made into an oval shape for the ultimate Thick Holiday Ornament Blanket Pattern.
Using Bernat Blanket in assorted playful, cheery colours, this blanket has thirty two complete motifs and eight half motifs for the edges.
The final round of each motif requires you to place a stitch marker so you can easily line these up when you are reading to put them together. You may want to bow tie the marked stitches together to make it easier as well.

For a cohesive look, the colours aren't random but there's no rule book saying you cannot but it probably will change the yarn quantities if you do that. It's up to you.
There is also side edging stitches to help fill out the indentations on the sides as well.
We have more ornamental afghans similar to this. Both of them have tutorials to follow as well.
