If you ever wanted to learn how to do a bargello quilt, this website has a tutorial started on it. They are really much easier than they first appear!
I added a pic on my sidebar for the Quilting Is Murder shop hop. It's a bit of a different take on the internet shop hop. You still go to quilt fabric websites, and click on the clue, and get entered for the prize .. but there is also a murder mystery story that you get to read chapters of each week and each week you get a mini puzzle to solve, submit your answer and enter for a smaller prize. It's quite fun! Check it out. :)
I got the Special Olympics box mailed off on Friday morning. It was so neat, and such a God-thing .. I had collected $12 for shipping from the other members of the group, and the cost of the postage with a delivery confirmation was $12.05! lol... worked out perfectly! We ended up sending in 31 scarves.
Here is My scarf number 18. I was able to finish it and include it in the 31 that got mailed.
Wisconsin Special Olympics is reported as having received 455 as of January 5th, so our 31 will go a ways to getting them to their goal of 600. I just checked the tracking number and it was delivered on Saturday. the 7th. :)
Now I'm trying to work on a few red scarves for the hospital in Grafton, WI. They want to give their Cardiac patients a scarf when they "graduate" :). I have one done, and one almost done. I also have enough red yarn to make two more. I'll also be sending in as many premie hats as I can get done the end of this month. I'll try to get pictures of these scarves and the hats before I deliver them.
