Welcome!! Happy Saturday! I love Saturday. I thought I would start this blog with Projects of the past, or things I did earlier this month. I make blankets for Project Linus. For those who don't know, Project Linus is an organization that makes and provides blankets for seriously ill children, children suffering some kind of trauma or with other needs. It is a wonderful organization. My sister and I meet up with the our chapter at a library twice a month. There, every one can join in the conversation, talk about what you are making , drop your blankets off, or even learn a brand new technique!  The ladies are so nice. I have made 11 blankets so far! Not only is it a lot of fun, but it helps children in need, which is very important. I was so happy when o found out that I could use my talents to help others!! That is very important to me. So here is one of the blankets that I have made. It is 36x36, 115 stitches to a row, about 66 rows. The colors are pale yellow and white, Red Heart Yarn. I used a double crochet stitch for the entire blanket and made a white scalloped border. When we are done with our blankets, we sew a Project Linus tag in the corner. The tag features a picture of Linus and his blanket from the "Peanuts" comic strip (which by the way is my all time favorite, something about growing up with Snoopy and looking back on it makes you feel all warm inside. I will never stop loving that!!) This blanket took 2-3 weeks to complete. Now, I would love to see a project that you made!! Feel free to comment.
