Hi Cindy -

 

Well, I've been kicking the idea around to try to do all 3 -- I hate to lose interested people if they want to do one of the losing ones ... I'm trying to figure out a way I can pull this off to do all 3 so everyone is happy !

 

I'll have to do some thinking on it and let you all know ~~~

 

Julie Kay I PMed you about this subject!!!!

Dear Gaynell .

Would it be too much out of your way to swing up by Ohio and pick me up ?

Myrtle Beach is my favorite place in the world .

How far of a drive is it for you guys from your house ?

It's about 600 miles for us .

Have a great time amd we'll see you when you get back !

[JulieKay]

I'm glad you found your book ! That's funny, you had it in the closet all along !

Hi Jimmie

I had never heard of the town you mentioned. My husband looked it up on the map and he said it's about 75 miles southwest of us. We're up near Akron .

Hello Ladies –

 

Although the poll hasn’t officially closed, it looks like the Lace & Bobbles has won by majority .

 

BUT …. I don’t want to disappoint the people in the other 2 groups . So, everyone will get to participate in the group they voted for ! I have found 2 very good people to lead the other 2 groups . They have both been in my other Crochetalongs and have been very dedicated to the group, posting often and completing their projects .They are also both very good kind-hearted ladies and will make great leaders . I will be there for them as backup support (but I bet they won’t even need me ! )

 

I will be posting separate threads now for each one ,so be watching for your group to open up and go in and your directions will be in there as to how to proceed .

 

Get your yarn and hooks out, ladies , it’s time to make some afghans !

 

:hook

[irikel]

Scorpio....that is looking great! I love the colors you chose..I am crocheting even faster now to see mine half as done as yours.

OMG !! :yay I just found that book in my closet I had seen this afghan before and loved it so I must have bought the book and forgot that I had it Too funny
