Next afghan square laid out


Here are the squares for the next afghan to be sent to Meagan's charity of choice. I've got the first two rows of squares bordered now.

Child's Daisy Lapghan

I had a strong urge to finish a project yesterday, as all of my WIPs are ones that will take a long time before done. I had recently sorted out my squares, and these are some of the ones that had "offwhite" backgrounds. I couldn't really use them in the white afghans, because they didn't look right against the bright white squares. I thought these would look great together for a child's lap afghan, though! Isn't it adorable? It's just right for a 6-8 year old girl's lap (I had DD try it out)!!

It will go with me on Thursday's run to Children's Hospital.

I am not sure how this is going to print out once I post it, but I thought it would be neat if you could where your square was on the last afghan I sent out.

I will be starting another one as soon as I can get all the squares that I have here inventoried!

HAPPY FOURTH! Drawing Winner announced!

Happy Fourth of July (Independence Day) to all Americans!

As promised, I have chosen the name of the charity blanket winner randomly of all of the people whose square I have received.

And the winner is: Meagan B. of Champaign, IL - also known as Phoenix on Crochetville. :D

Congratulations to Meagan!

I have emailed Meagan that she has won, but have not heard from her yet. If, for some reason, I do not have a response from her by July 11th, I will choose another name from the list.
