The First Blankets are Drying

Justin and Grace's blankets are drying - I should have the pics up later this week. They look awesome! Simone's blanket is being sewn up. I haven't updated stats for a while so here goes: 1. We are at 221 knitters - amazing! Thank you for continuing to volunteer. My goal is 20 blankets and I know it can be done. 2. Squares are still arriving - I need to send out a huge thanks to the following: Amanda Cathleen, Annarella, Dorothy, Joy, Julia, Karen, Karen K, Katie, Knitpastis, Knittymama, Lin, Noelle, Sandra, Scout and Tracey - the squares are beautiful and the goodies too! Thank you so much for your hard work!!!! If I have made an error or if you haven't gotten your duly deserved props for sending squares PLEASE let me know - I realize everyday how easy I make mistakes and I don't want to not give anyone the credit they so richly deserve. 3. I am still getting draw prizes - woohoo! I am donating a skein of the lovely and elusive Vespers sock yarn. Noelle generously donated some Lorna's Laces sock yarn. I must say these Albequerque S 'n B'rs are incredible - you girls are stupendous! Thank you Noelle! I have other draw prizes whose pictures I cannot load on. I will display them as soon as the problem is rectified. 4. I spoke with my brother about the status of our three kiddies - Jamie says Grace, Simone and Justin are all doing well with no significant changes for the worse - excellent news. Note: I have been having problems downloading photos for about the past week; hence no posts. Blogger is not letting me put up photos and when I can only one or two. I am rectifying this problem by moving my blogs - I will keep you posted as to when and where. I do apologize for not being able to put up more photos.
