Hi Val ~ Great job on your pattern! It will be lovely.

 

Oh Stephanie, so sorry about your squares. But it sounds like you're making the most of it...good for you!

 

I joined the first two rows of Just Ducky #2 this evening. DH leaves town tomorrow a.m. so I should have more crochet time for the next few days.

 

See you all tomorrow.

Here is my test filet pattern that I did for Leanna over at the Sky Cal. Thought you girls might like to see.

Hi Wendy ~ my figures are:

 

Last Friday - 1487

Additions this week - 24,43,30

Total - 1584

 

Let me know what you think.

 

According to my book I had 1456 last friday.

 

Not sure what has happened.

Mornin' all...or evening, as the case may be

 

Mary, 21 more solids for me please.

[Aussie]

I have done some more rows on the scrappydoo pet ghan it now measures 8saltines X 11saltines. How big do you think I should make it.

Sparkie wanted a longer walk, but we're both out of shape for anything longer than 15 minutes, which is what we did...

 

Pet blankies: recommended sizes from different sites: 18 by 28 inches, 24 inches square, 17 inches square,

Snugglesproject.org asks for (SMALL) 12 by 12, 20 by 20 inches,

MEDIUM: between 20 by 20 and 32 by 32 inches

LARGE: 32 by 32 and up (my guys fit this category:lol)

[Aussie]

Judy 15 minutes is still good and at least you got out there with Sparkie.

 

My pet ghan measures 25 inches X 20 inches once I finish this row. So I guess it would be fine then and with a border. Might make this one the last row then.

[judianne]

Wendy, that size is good - would be perfect for most animals in the shelter. You're a sweetie.....

[Aussie]

Judy thanks.

 

I have done the last row and it now measures 9x11saltines. So now I will do the border and then one pet ghan will be finished.

[tracysthings]

Wendy, you are superfast. Whichever pet gets the blankie is going to love it.

[Aussie]

TRACY thanks

[tracysthings]

Hello Wendy, how did the netball match go?

[robotgirl1629]

Are there any special requirements for petghans compared to...peopleghans? Aside from size, I mean.

 

I just posted my first request for pattern testers.

[Aussie]

Hello Wendy, how did the netball match go?

 

Emma's team lost by one point, the coach from the other team was so annoying, she was walking up and down the court yelling at her girls and apparently she was the fill in, hate to think who the person she filled in for is like.

[Aussie]

Stephanie I dont think there are any special requirements for blankies for cats and dogs. Congrats on getting one of your patterns tested.

 

Hmm just wondering whether to do the reverse sc stitch on the border of the pet ghan. What do you all think. Im not very good at it though.

[Skysmom]

Hi everyone.

 

Wendy~Your filet work is wonderful. I don't have a clue what I did, but I changed you back to 1553 squares. You're still in second place!

 

Linda M ~ I've added your 21.

[tracysthings]

As long as Emma had fun. Our coach used to make us work hard, but I don't remember her shouting at us.

I think you need to practice the rev sc. Just so that you get better at it.

[Aussie]

MARY Morning to you

 

Tracy yes I need to do the rev stitch, I hear your making 80 bangle bags for the fete, what a great person you are.

[tracysthings]

Morning Mary.

 

Wendy, I don't have enough bangles, but you can come over and help me if I do get some more. The fiete is on Saturday.

[Aussie]

Ok I would love to come over and help you. Shall I leave now.

[tracysthings]

Yes, you may come over now. I will put the kettle on and you bring the timtams. Don't forget a sweater/jumper, it is cold and rainy today.

[Aussie]

Timtams yummo, love them, Ok will bring them along. I had better bring 2 packets, one for on the way, its a long trip you know.

[Aussie]

Ok gotta go, I have a plane to catch.

 

Night all.

[tracysthings]

Wendy, pack extra, I haven't tried them and heard good things. Good night.

[Misa]

Wendy and Tracy y'all have me giggling this morning :lol

 

Tracy - 80 bangle bags?!?

 

Wendy - I hate coaches like that I used to work for a collegiate soccer (football to you) team and if the kids lost boy were those coaches mad the next day. Everyone had to walk on eggshells. Of course, the men's team lost so much that the men's coach lost his job after a couple of years so I guess they had cause to be upset And yes you should do the reverse sc Only way to get good at it is to practice. It doesn't take that long to get the rhythm of it

 

Mary - Good morning to you! How's Zoe doing?

 

Stephanie - How exciting! Did you post here in the pattern tester area?

 

Okay, lazy hazy weekend time now Of course I had to get up at 6:30 this morning to feed Tuon and give her her shot. But I went back to sleep nice and easy
