    Liz ~ lovely afghan!  Thanks so much for the picture. 

    Madison ~ I hope all goes well for your mother; prayers are going up for you and your parents.  *hugs*

    raro ~ So glad you're having fun.  I love making squares; I like to see how the same yarn can look so different depending on the stitches used.

    Have a great day, everyone!

    Sisters, hope you are well. I have accumulated a good many squares but I was trying to get some more ready in other colors so there's more variety in the box (I use a big skein and just knit till it's gone.)

    I like all the blues in the latest picture.Laughing

    Another box will be on its way.

    We were without electricity, for about 14 hours, due to a storm yesterday. No computer, radio, nothing! Sooooooooooooo...I crocheted by candlelight! lol

    Hope you're all doing well.

    LauraGTO ~ crocheting by candlelight sounds so cozy, but I'm sure you were glad for the electricity to be back on, lol.  Cheers to you for being such a dedicated Border Patroller! Smile

    Madison ~ I'm glad the squares got there ok.  The new afghan is so pretty!  The smiley face is too cute, and I'm loving that brown and orange granny because it makes me think of candy corn ~ yum!  I hope all went well with your mother.

    I keep forgetting to tell y'all about my flea market find:  a box full of yarn for five dollars!  There were bunches and bunches of partial skeins, so of course I thought, "SQUARES!!!" when I saw them.  Woot woot!

    Have a good day,
    Artemis

    Madison.....gorgeous as always.  I'm working on bordering a few squares and then will have one ready to sew together.  I've got to stop spending so much time laying them out.  lol 

    Thanks so much to each of you. 

     Hugs.....Liz

    Hi everyone.  I just found this thread through Laura.  she gave me directions on what to do.. so I'll be joining in on the fun.. I don't go anywhere right now, but do have a few scap balls of yarn to get me started.  I'll mail my squares with Laura's for now (she lives a mile or so away)...  Not sure how creative I can get right now as chemo is taking its toll.. but this is good to help my neuropathy.. and something I love to do.. my baby can only have so many sweaters.. LOL..

    Wow, another nice one.  I love all the different patterns on this one.  You guys are so creative.  Do I see a square with a yellow happy face? Love it.  I have some squares that need bordering just need to get to the post office.  I haven't done much knitting with temps being so hot but will pick it up again in the fall.  Thanks ladies for keeping this project going.

    ok i've gotten my lazy fingers moving again and have started a stack of squares .... gonna take a while before there are enough to send but at least i'm moving again Embarassed

    purple nice to see you again ... we're still trying to get out to NY again but i think it will be next year .. will certainly let you know so we can get together !

    laura sounds like the border patrol is cranking them out !

    madison and liz - lovely lovely hugs being pulled together

    mak - good luck with chemo and welcome to the hugaghan project

    artemis - i think some pretty squares come out of those boxes of leftover yarn ... my sil gave me her mom's - six moving boxes worth - needless to say it was a looooong time before i had to go to the store for more yarn

    odalys - weather here near the pacific ocean in calif is "june gloom" ... fog in a.m. sun in afternoon but at least the fog keeps the temps down ...

    dlrcpa - i too try to get a mixed box together before i send it off but i took a few month break in crocheting and now having to scramble a bit to get a box together ... do not want liz and madison to run out

    hollyann hi !

    Hi girls.....

    I'm good with squares right now - send them to Madison.  We share a lot so if we need some, we just let the other know. 

    I've finished two afghans and will post pics in awhile.  Madison has one ready to mail also.  We are (fortunately) getting low on names.  If you know of someone who needs a box of hugs, let one of us know.  We do need all information in order to mail them.

     Thanks everyone!  Have a grand day.  Liz

    makmak ~ Welcome to the project!  Hang in there with the chemo, sister; you can do it!  *hugs*

    jenni ca ~ wow, six boxes of yarn!  Awesome!  And I think you're right about pretty squares coming from leftovers.  My flea market find and some yarn that my mom gave me are colors I wouldn't choose, but so far I like how they've worked up.  And YAY for six years and counting ~ woohoo!

    Liz ~ the afghans are lovely; thanks so much for the pics.  

    Madison ~ a box of squares is on its way to you.

    Hugs to all,
    Artemis
