Hi all, dr thinks i may have kidney stones, so i have to go to have a ct scan tomorrow. they also gave me a 14 day antibiotic to take. this just keeps getting better and better (note the extreme sarcasm) :worried:ohdear:thair

 

Hope you get better soon! :hug

He may be here tomorrow or Friday! OMGosh.............I cant wait to squeeze the pieces out of him!!!!!!!!!!!!! :hug

Yay! My AF sis just got to spend some time with her family.

 

Still not feeling great today. A little better. I've barely been able to crochet! *gasp* so no squares done this week yet. :(

I hope everyone has a great day!

Hi everyone. Congrats on your son coming home, Tam. I am only seeing hit and miss posts for some reason, so I'm missing some I'm sure. Hope all that is feeling sick/down/ or otherwise feels better soon. I have a couple more squares ready to go out and about to work on a few more.

 

If I can get motivated (been cleaning all day), I'm going to try and get my squares all together for a picture. NOW I know why you girls ask for 12" instead of 6". :lol Still trying to decide how I want to join them and if I want to do it as I get them or wait until I get them all so I can decide what layout to use. Hmmmm... Like I said, if I can get motivated. :P

I've been wondering if Ecru is close to white? And what is a good pattern for cotton. The only cotton squares I've made are granny. Can't wait to see what you have Sopo!

okay, laid out in no particular order but trying to remember who sent what so could go back in respective envelopes for now :P (remind me to get some of those little tiny tags to put on each one but I do have pics of each one with names so I can figure it out :D ), here are my squares so far. Thank you much for each and every one as I love them all. :U

 

I did not think this through well, just loved the idea of giving squares and receiving them from friends wasn't too bad either. :lol I have no idea how many squares would be needed using 6" squares ... have no idea how big it should be... have no idea how to join it... well, you get the picture. :blush So, any ideas you gals have, lay 'em on me. :yes

 

All I know that is every time I get a puffy in the mail, it lights up my entire day! :D So thank you all once again. :hug

 

And Nira, ecru is fine and a regular granny is fine. That's what I've been doing a lot of lately. I'm in that simple granny groove. :hook

OHH how pretty! I see mine! You have the fun part ahead of you, many options to put it together too, I see this as maybe being a flat braid (google it for tutorial) in grey or maroon (burgandy, wine, etc )how pretty! good luck! Size depends on what size YOU want it to be, can be any size you like , just more or less sqaures is all, lol

Love you guys

:heart

sopo, your squares look great!

 

CrochetBoosh, you are very welcome. <3

 

Nira, I hope you feel better soon. I made Pickled Eggs today. I've been craving them lately for some reason. My Grandma used to make them for the Holidays. I was going to use her recipe, but it takes three dozen eggs. There's no way we would eat all those. So I used a recipe with only six eggs. Course, that probably won't be enough... But. I need more eggs.

Hey, everyone! Had a fun day today shopping with my kiddos. I'm working on another afghan (a test pattern for someone) but I plan to take some time this weekend to get some squares out! Am really looking forward to sending some out!

 

:hugs to all of you who are not feeling well. I pray that you feel better soon! :hugs

:clap Yay!! They made it, right on time. I hope that helped you out. Four squares is a lot less intimidating than 12, eh? :hook I know, Pickled Eggs aren't for everyone. :P But they make my husband happy. Oh, the long stringy things are onions. :P The beet juice turns everything red.

 

I'm glad you like the square, too; AshyN. :)

Hello Ladies!

 

I'm just popping in for a quick hello. I'm so sad that I don't have the time to make squares for you all. I'm so busy that I'm going crazy. I'm taking 5 classes in school, our house is for sale (so I have to keep up after a husband and two little girls!), and the Perry the Platypus laptop sleeve I made for my dh is such a big hit that I have 4 orders in my "queue" (laptop sleeves in Hello Kitty, Spongebob, Kermit the Frog, and anything made with Betty Boop) that I need to complete. That isn't counting the orders I am getting on etsy! So, I'm thinking of you all and I will whip out some squares at the first chance I get (which will probably been in an insane asylum!)
