Strawberry Sundae arrived today. I’ll work on getting a border put on in a few weeks.

Also I received an email from the coordinator in my area for the Project Linus organization. This is where the blankets that don’t already have intended destinations will go to. http://www.projectlinus.org/

Here is what was replied to me!

[I]“Danielle, we would be glad to get the blankets your group has made. I deliver to the hospitals, cps, casa and anywhere there is a need. If you are located in the Longview area, the drop off place is Sharmans Sewing Ctr. Please put your name/names of thoses making the blankets so I will know where they come from. Many times I receive a thank you card from the one that received the blanket and by putting your name on the blanket, they know who made it. Thanks so much. I will add you to my list. Donnie”[/I]

I will be sure to include any notebooks/papers that we write on so that it may be included with the blanket!

DD and I have a stack of blankets and hats that we would love to donate. Could we add them to our groups things that get taken to Project Linus? We need a good place to send them to. Thanks.

343

Sure I would love to take them. Send them to me if you’d like and I’ll box them up and take them in a couple of weeks!

Hi y’all! I do have the Smurf blanket ready to go and just gave up trying to catch up on messages. The holidays were wonderful (love being with the grandbaby), then last weekend I went on a retreat with girlfriends. Now everything is settling back into routine and I am ready, willing and able to knit on blankets again.

Thanks ladies for keeping the group going as well as you do. :muah:

345

I’m still here and ready to knit when it’s my turn.

346

Tyler’s blanket (greens) should be ready to be in the mail by mid week. I’ve got about an inch and a half to go! The nausea is so bad in the evenings. Makes it hard to knit for long periods of time. Sorry for the hold up!

347

Poor Danielle! :pout:
I wish I knew what would help you. :heart: :heart:

348

Tyler’s Blanket is done and SW needs about 4 rows! I realized that they were both headed to cdjack. They should be in the mail tomorrow!

~danielle~

PS I’ll post pictures of both of them later!

349

daniellle I mailed you candy corn today and some other stuff I had for you as well.

350

Tyler’s Blanket and the Southwest blanket are on their way to cdjack! Sorry for the delay!

I got Tyler’s blanket and the Southwest blanket in the mail yesterday afternoon. I’ll start to work on Tyler’s today.

352

Pick me…pick me…I’m ready, too! :woohoo:

I didn’t see a blanket with my name on it…did I miss it? I can’t seem to start on any new projects this weekend…at least with an oddball I can get someone else to start it for me :teehee:

I’ll be in California this week for my great-nephew’s first birthday and back on the 26th.

353

I need to take small break as I recently went back to work in December and we’re STILL working on finding a balance between everything.

354

No problem! Let me know when things slow down again and you’re ready to continue! Thanks again for all your wonderful work!

355

I received the completed candy corn blanket. It’s beautiful! I’ll work on getting the borders on the other blanket or two and start boxing them up to deliever them to Longview to the Linus Project rep. Thanks again ladies!

Hey there, Claudia! :waving:

I just told her about our group today, ladies. I thought since we have a couple of knitters that need to take a break, we could use an extra knitter.

I’m starting on the Southwest blanket tonight.
