Look at the BEAUTIFUL afghan gifted to me by Villagers!!! (you know who you are!)

[funkyreporter]

What a surprise! Oh my! I received this gorgeous afghan out of the blue yesterday! I don't know who all was behind this as I was directed to look for a thread that said "need help" and apparently a lot of people need help, so I am stumped. Reveal yourselves, mighty crocheters, and let me thank you personally for the love and caring you give every day to those who are fortunate enough to be part of your lives, and let me thank you, too for gifting me this wonderful, tangible hug of afghan in beautiful spring colors!

 

Wow, was this thoughtful and completely unexpected... how did you do this without my knowing??? HMMM??? I'm on here every day! How did I miss this? And by the way, this is the first afghan I've ever been given! Can you imagine? Poor me, never knew anyone that loved me enough to make me an afghan (except for the 12 or so that I've made and are around the house - but those don't count)

 

So here it is, and I'm going to go image heavy and I don't know how to re-size photos either!

 

 

 

Me LOVING (and hiding) with my lovely hug-ghan

 

Me and Chelsea, the wonder-mutt!

Oh, Paulette, it's beautiful! Vicki did a wonderful job gathering squares and putting it together for you. I didn't make any squares, but I helped with the postage.

You lucky girl, That is gorgeous

[Empress Busy Bee]

It's very nice! And lucky you.

I was in the dark, too or I'd have helped.

[giaana]

Wow, gorgeous! The mysterious group of crocheters did an amazing job! Lucky you!!

[Lisaizme]

Like Empress Busy Bee.. I knew nothing of this (lol I sound like Sgt Schultz.. I know nothing! nothing!!) either... and I too am impressed that it was done w/o spilling the beans.

[Krystal16]

I knew nothing of it, but if I had, you would have had at least one more square to add to that one!

Paulette - I am so surprised that you didn't see the thread - are you loosing your touch!!!!

 

Vicki (mythunderbird) started the thread and put it together so thanks to Vicki the afghan came to life.

 

It did come out beautiful - when you wrap it around yourself, just think of all of us here that love and support you :hug

[MomToLabs]

Oh, Paulette, that is so pretty! I wasn't part of this (I didn't see the thread, either!) but I have to say that you deserve it! You have brightened our day so many times with your wonderful stories and hilarious commentary that it's your turn to get sent a smile.

Paulette, you look so cute snuggled up in your gorgeous afghan....and chelsea seems to love it.....just as much as you do . Yep, all of us here, in Crochetville, care about you!

Lots of hugs sweetie! :hug

[KnicKnac]

Oh Paulette - it turned out gorgeous! I missed the thread, like some others, or else you would probably have gotten two!

 

WOW! Viller's are the greatest!

[minwifeof4boys]

a great gift for a great person!

[coolhockeymom]

It turned out beautiful ....And each and everytime you see it you will know you are not alone and many people wish you the best:hook

[crochetbycharlene]

wow. beautiful!

[nucki]

I would like to be able to say that I was a part of this.... but I can't. Like a lot of the others, I totally missed that thread. I bet if even half the people on here who love you had seen the thread, you'd have ended up with 3 or 4 ghans!!!!

 

It's beautiful! What a lovely gift... and like you said, a hug. I like to call them "hugs of yarn."

[CrochetPoet]

What a beautiful afghan, and what wonderful women to get together and collude to create such a gift for you. I bet you're one special friend to each and every one of those ladies. Congratulations!

That is gorgeous, you are ready for Spring!

[Pam Gillette]

It is nice to have friends and know they care, actions speak louder than words and this is truly a beautiful gift.

[Beaglelady]

I saw and read the thread. I don't think I took part in this one sorry to say - but it's really beautiful!!

[TX CrochetLover]

Paulette, Thanks go to Vicki getting it all started and putting it together. I am happy to say I sent a couple of squares filled with love for you! I am so happy you like it, keep it close when you feel down, and remember we here at the Ville got your back.

[truckin Patty]

I'm sorry I didn't catch this thread, but it sure is a beautiful afghan.

[mizduck]

Beautiful! I'm completely oblivious too! I agree I would have spared a square or three...I'm practicing my square techniques! Now you have something tangible to remind you how much others think of you!
