[jessicali]

I received 2 wonderful squares in the mail today.

 

Thanks chrisdfiend & hershey 038!

[bgs]

I received 4 beautiful squares in the mail today from bgs! Thanks so much!!

 

You're welcome. They got there really fast. I just mailed them Wed.

 

Sorry to make this so long, but is it too much to ask if I could have some 8" squares for a comfortghan to let him know there are people that care? If I could have them in WW and different shades of blue since that is his favorite color?

 

Thanks for letting me vent a little on here.

Hope everyone is doing well tonite.

 

I will get busy on a blue square or two!

Well…… today is the day……… hubby gets his groshong out today. It’s a line that was placed in his chest so that blood draws and his treatments could be done without stabbing him with an IV every time.

The Dr. doesn’t want to see him for a blood draw for 2 months…. And every 2 months after that. If blood work looks good each time… they wont do a biopsy for a year. Talk about excitement here!

Michael is still doing great! He is still in remission and enjoying his summer!

Thank you all for your love and continued prayers for my family!

Thank you all for being the best bunch of ladies ever… for creating a safe place for me to come vent…cry…. And rejoice!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Great news!

 

I rec'd a beautiful square in the mail today! It's from Brenda (bgs). Thank you so much! The picture doesn't really do it justice. The colors are more vibrant. I love it! I've been having a very difficult day and having this lovely square in the mail made my day so much better!

 

You're welcome!

Ladies, I'm wondering if I can ask this? We found out 2 weeks ago my step-father has inoperable lung cancer at stage 4. This has been very hard as my brother and I are very close to him. Also my mother is mental ( I still debate this one- she is just "mental" enough to be mean as a junkyard snake. Always been that way, even before we were told a couple of years ago she was mental. ) They are having a very hard time financially and with just my brother and I it is very hard and I live 1 hour and 1/2 away. They have no friends or church family that come around because over the years my mother has driven them all away. He is fighting hard to conquer this but living in such an evironment is hard. I went to visit and help them some this evening and I was so depressed coming home, I can only imagine how depressed he is.

Sorry to make this so long, but is it too much to ask if I could have some 8" squares for a comfortghan to let him know there are people that care? If I could have them in WW and different shades of blue since that is his favorite color?

 

Thanks for letting me vent a little on here.

Hope everyone is doing well tonite.

 

I will get started on some blue ones right away

 

 

I'm making them, now I just need to send them I'm hoping to pack them up this weekend.

 

I did get a beautiful square today from Karishema, thank you and for the adorable angel. I will post a pic tomorrow.

Good Afternoon ladies!!! I love seeing all the squares and can't wait to see the completed projects.

 

Well I seen the cardiologist last week and yes I do need surgery to fix the hole in my heart, soon. In the meantime I have have to wear an event monitor to capture all my heart palpitations and flutters. I so feel like an old, old lady. Work is more interesting with new mangers and now they are moving my office to the other end of the building.

Keep us posted Susan!

 

[imanurse55]

Susan- Prayers and positive thoughts for a very successful surgery!!!

 

Love the squares!

 

I haven't been making any squares this past week- I 've been busy getting to know my new grandson- and also making a baby blanket for a co-worker- we are having a shower at work next week for her. Thankfully, it's almost done- so then I hope to get some time to make and mail out some squares!

[sopo]

Nice squares Katie.

 

Susan, I know it sounds like a pain with the wires, but so glad they can fix it.

 

Joann, kiss that baby for me!! Would love to have a wee one around to fawn over.

 

I have some squares to go out, just got to get invoices in so can get them out.

[krazycrocheter]

Wasn't able to get my squares out Yesterday or Today. Had car trouble but a family friend helped out and didn't have to buy any new parts. So hope to get them out Monday.

[pat54]

Susan, keeping you in my thoughts for your surgery.

 

 

As I promised, here is the picture of the square and lovely angel pin I received from Karishema. Thank you again.

Good Afternoon Ladies. I need some help here is a pic of all the squares i have gotten. My questions is im trying to cover a twin bed. how many more would i need and what color should i join them with?

[katyallen815]

Good Afternoon Ladies. I need some help here is a pic of all the squares i have gotten. My questions is im trying to cover a twin bed. how many more would i need and what color should i join them with?

Humm, I would measure where i wanted the afghan to fit on the twin bed, whether I would want a lot of hangover, or to fit just the top, then I would measure the afghan as is, and go from there, give or take a couple inches for them all to be joined, and any trim you might put on it..

As for what color, any would look great, there is no ugly granny ghan, lol I used buff, and mine is looking nice, what I have done so far, but you could use any color that is predominant in your room, or even a contrasting accent color. Play around with it, don't be afraid to border one in several diff colors, and see what you might like best! good luck, it's lovely so far!

PS i hope you can use one more, I have one made for you but not in the mail yet, he he he, Are you asking for 8 inch sqaures, cause the size you probably have now, (minus border and trim) would be approx. 40 something, by 48+. I put on one more row on all of mine, then I flat braid them adding almost another inch, and will border the entire thing when finsihed with a couple more rows....Probably end up with 60 by i dunno, 70? I will have to measure when completed.
