Charity Blitz 2008--a group effort to support a different charity each month

[goofy]

sorry...didn't look far enough down on the first page. thanks anyway.

Its that time of the month for PMS.

So this is a reminder, that as you get ready to send off your February blitz items you need to send a PM to both Flowerpower06 and myself. Donna will be working with the Okini coordinator so she needs to know what items are being sent, and I am the blitz bean counter this month so I just need to know how many beans to count. Thanks bunches and have fun!

Thanks so much for the compliments. The lapghan only took a few days (I crochet like a maniac).

This looks like the one they used. And a lapghan is generally around 36 by 48....

Actually, I used a pattern from Contest Favorites Mile-A-Minute Afghans by Leisure Arts. It was #10. It is, however, very similar to the stained glass one.

Total: 8 hats and 1 scarf

 

I was trying so hard to get a lapghan done, but with sick children all week (the flu finally hit my house!! ) it's just not going to get done this time around.

 

Everyone's items are just lovely! Great job everyone!!

[FlowerPower06]

Yes - this is the address. I would suggest a DC but it's not necessary....it's up to you. Also, please label the items for gender, etc. if it's not apparent.
