OH, It sounds like fun (Olympic Games Challenge). I think I will join REdheat and make 2 lapghans myself. It will be a challenge to try to do 2 squares a night. Especially since I will be on vacation and crocheting in NYC in the summer is exhausting.

I haven't signed up yet, but will surely consider it.

Sissie and her helpers:

I've entered the Crochet Games of Ancient Greece 2008 (on another thread) and am challenging myself to make two lapghans for Sissie's seniors during the Summer Olympics in August.

Anyone interested in forming a team with me? We can keep each other updated on number of squares made and assembled and cheer each other on. :cheer

 

 

I'll join you...

OK I'll join you. This is a challenge as I will be on vacation for the summer, and I usually switch to quilting since I have more time.ALso, NYC steamy summers are grooling. But I will give it a go.For me it will be more squares while my son is in Day camp and less on the weekends.:crocheting:cheer

Ok, Redheart, I'm in. Sissie needs all the help she can get to make 100 of these so I'll do it. I finished one for her and I was going to try to make another but this way it will be fun and challenging to get 2 more done. I need to take care of a couple of other things so I'll be ready. I already have the yarn picked out. I'm going over to sign up now.

of course i want these Jess! They are pretty Thanks so much:hug

 

I was telling my Grandpa's GF about this yesterday. She had a lapghan almost completed she wanted to send with me. I told her no, since she had already mentioned it was for another charitable purpose. But if she was interested in helping you're taking squares of any size or lapghans.

 

I would be more than happy to have any squares she would like to send! and thanks for spreading the word :hug

what's the count now sissie?

 

I have an idea. If it's not too much trouble for you to do, how about keeping a tally on your first post? You can do a tally of lapgahns completed and squares done. Since I'm doing squares and I think others are too, we can let you know maybe weekly how many squares we have for you.

Hey Sissie, I found a fleece blanket that would suit a man I believe, that I'd like to send. It's solid grey, with a verigated yarn for the edging that is brown/blue/black/white/grey/ and maybe other neutral type colors. I'll PM you for your address.

 

I hope to make more, but we'll just see how things go. :) Great job!

Victoria
