If you are on the list below, you are agreeing to make twelve 12" squares and to mail eleven to the other people on this list. Let me know ASAP if this is not what you expected so I can take you off the list.

  2. Cath aka bit
  3. SuperFemme
  4. Christie
  5. HippieFlowerGirl
  6. Medusa
  7. Paphigleo
  8. Linus
  9. K (Linus's partner)
  10. Novelafemme
  11. fishinabaggie
  12. ?
If you want, please also make 1 extra one that is Pink/Green or a combo. Per Dusa's suggestion we can make a blanket for the Site Reunion raffle/auction/etc.

Doing the extra square:

If you want to sign up JUST for the pink/green one square, go ahead.

Okay. For the pink and green yarn, I found the follow. These are Red Heart Super Saver no dye lot so they should be really easy to find.

PINK=Pretty 'N Pink
GREEN=Spring Green

I'm also teaching the Pixie how to make a granny square.

I found some really cool 12" square patterns here:

Also, I picked up some pink/green yesterday that is the Lion Heart/Vanna White brand. Would you rather have the ones you mentioned here?

Default VOTES NEEDED PLEASE


We have eleven folks with a possible twelfth if Hippychickgrl decides to join us.

I am a doofus and spaced the fact that the poll would be on the front page where EVERYONE could vote on it. So it's a freaking mess.

SO!

I would like to hear from all the PARTICIPANTS (only) on what color they want this afghan to be. Remember it is yours to keep or give as a gift so keep that in mind.

Here are the colors we talked about:

Purple (any shade including variegated)
Neutral (tan, brown, black, ecru, white, varigated)

Autumn Jewel Tones (Red, Gold, Brown, Ebony, Green, Purple, variegated)

Blue (any shade including variegated)

Rainbow (Red, Orange, Yellow, Blue, Green, Indigo, Violet and variegated)

Next question: Is anyone opposed to a Yahoogroup loop for the sole purpose of exchanging addresses and letting each other know how we are doing?

Autumn Jewel Tones are my fav, followed by the blue family (just not pastels).

Personally, there isnt anywhere in the house we could use rainbow, unless of course, I rig it to a flagpole on the front lawn. I am sure that the Methodist church congregation across the street would just LOVE that!!!

Yahoogroups is fine by me.

Arwen, thanks for all your efforts in coordinating this!

I managed to do the pink/green square yesterday! I am quite proud that I was able to figure it out! LOL I figure out depreciation schedules, accruals and the like... heaven forbid I not be able to figure out a granny square! LOL
