Linda, please keep going on the train! He is so cute and you've already done a lot. If you feel like or get just come here and we'll cheer you on.

[busy-bee-lmt]

Whoa!!! It's not the train I was thinking of giving up on, it's the frog pattern. I've already got the train face squares done. There were only 8 of them. I've just got 1 square left to crochet for the next block, and have between 1/3 and 1/2 of the rest of them crocheted as well.

Cara, of course you can use the pattern for your nephew, with or without the face. Whichever you like best.

Thanks for the encouraging words, everyone. I guess I wasn't too clear of which project I was talking about earlier.

Wendy - the Amish looks GREAT! Such cheery colors!

Morning everyone

 

Thanks for all your comments on the Amish. I already have a couple of rows done on the 7th block, which is great. I will do more tonight but the last episode of Heroes is on tonight and have to watch that.

 

Linda I think your Frog pattern idea is great, go with it, it will look awesome.

 

Peaches welcome to the group. You will love making these ghans. The squares are easy and they are easy to put together. The hardest part is picking which one to do.

[busy-bee-lmt]

Hi, Wendy. The second hardest thing is figuring what colors to use.

I think I've got the frog down. At least the small version works. Will big it up and see what you think tomorrow.

[Misa]

Thought the train was leaving the station.

 

I think the frog sounds fabulous too. I need to make up one and hanging it on the wall in my slowly becoming my yarn room/studio

 

Welcome to the group Peaches!!

[QueenOfCrochet]

I love your quit-gans - they are beautiful. I am a little confused on the criss-cross quit-gan. Can you break down the squares for me as far as color? I am a little confused.

 

Welcome Lori.

I think the frog is going to be cute. I can't wait to see what ya come up with.

[Skysmom]

Hi Tabby.

 

Linda ~ Can't wait to see Mr. Frog!

 

Wendy ~ I know your Mom will be thrilled with the Amish. How many blocks are you doing? (Sorry if you already told us and I forgot. )

 

Time for dinner. Everyone take care and have a good evening.

Linda....keep going with that frog! I can't wait to see it! I think I will probably do the Amish baskets first...a friend asked me to do that one for a friend of hers after we both get through our weddings this summer...then I would love to do the Clays Choice...oh heck I want to do all of them! I love the pink flamingo for my sister too! I'll be here for awhile along with the rest of you! I know they are going to be addicting and that's part of the reason I haven't started yet! I don't want to quit or get distracted as soon as I start! After this weekend I will be doing some serious yarn shopping for this...maybe yet this week as I see Joann's has RH Super Saver on sale for $1.99. :clap So you gals just carry on right now but in about a week I will be here more regularly!

[hseger]

Wendy I love the Amish! I really like that yellow it's so nice and cheery.

 

Linda- I'd love to see a frog that would be cute.

[Aussie]

Thanks everyone,

 

 

Mary thanks yes I think I will need to make 12 blocks of the Amish but its hard to tell until Im a bit closer.

 

Theresa wow RH yarn for $1.99 you gotta love that.

 

Heather thanks yes the yellow is mums favorite color so Im hoping she will like it. She knows Im doing this pattern as she picked it out but she doesnt know what colors.

[QueenOfCrochet]

Hello Theresa! It's great to have ya join in.

 

 

I hope you all have agreat 4th of July.

 

[Aussie]

Morning Tabby

 

Have a great 4th of July. Do you have a public holiday there.

[q8_crochet]

wendy the amish is amazing

you want to make 12??? i don`t think so i think 9 will be enough it just need border and nice edgeing beleive me

how big is her bed??

[q8_crochet]

tabby

whats going on??? what happens in the 4th of July???

is there something special???

[Aussie]

Hi Athba. Has you can see from the photo 6 blocks for the Amish only covers half of the queen size bed. So I would need to do at least 12 and then hopefully with a border it will cover the bed.

 

The 4th of July is Americas Independence day. Have you seen the movie Independence Day. I love that movie, cant remember how many times I have watched it.

[Skysmom]

Good Morning, ladies. I hope you all have a nice 4th of July. We're going to try again to get some yard work done at DD's house. We've had rain for 23 out of 30 days in our area and they say it's not over yet!

 

Wendy, yes it is a national holiday. Most cities have parades, fireworks and other celebrations.

 

Theresa~Can't wait for you to join in! We all agree that Cara's patterns are addictive and you're obviously hooked already. Enjoy the wedding weekend.

[q8_crochet]

wendy

i`m mad about that i want a child soon but he says we should enjoy our life together at least for 2 years till you finish studying :mad

[Misa]

Happy 4th Y'all!!

 

Yep, the 4th of July is America's Independence Day The day we celebrate our triumph over the British. Then we turn around and make friends with 'em. I love irony

 

All dreary and yucky here again today At least we got a days relief So we'll cook our fajitas indoors and have a grand old time. We don't need a whole lotta reason to celebrate anyway. The fact that it's Wednesday would've been enough

 

Have a happy day y'all

[q8_crochet]

ladeis i`m missing shaylen and Tracy no one knows any thing about them:think???

[Aussie]

Cara what are Fajitas.

 

Athba dont be in a hurry to have kids. Have some time with hubby first.

[thery4]

Thanks for the welcome back ladies!

Mary, I've been addicted since the day this cal was announced, but you know how life is and gets in the way sometimes, but now I am more than ready to get started on at least two! Thanks for the wedding wishes too..it's getting down to the wire and I've had to calm the DD down once so far this week. LOL and it wasn't even wedding related, just one thing that didn't need to be dealt with this week.

Everyone have a safe and fun 4th!
