Hi Madison,
Yes if you would like to send more I will be happy to work it up...I have a few squares made that I could send by not very many as I have been busy this past couple of weeks going back to work...am back in the habit of making at least one, somtimes two squares in the evening so wont take long to get you more together.
Your afghans are sooooooo very pretty.....and I love it when someone recieves them:)....I love the idea of brightening a sisters day with what we are doing...
Hope all is well for you.
Hugs
Jule -
Jule, I will send you some yarn your way early next week. I am busy this week with a law school graduation for one of my daughters. Thank you so much...I am almost finished with another afghan and many of your squares are incorporated therein.
Oh, I mailed an afghan Monday. Another afghan today. I am working on the finishing boarder of one I hope to get out tomorrow.....
You are all the bestest!!!!!
Hugs, Madison -
Just got squares from Liz and Cheri...thank you ladies!!!
Promise to finish up the one I'm working on in the next day or two...geez I've been so tired. I think it's the lack of nicotine! Can't handle caffeine so don't know what I'll do. -
Okay dear friends:
This afghan goes out in tomorrow's mail:
Close-ups
You are all the bestest!!!!
Hugs, Madison -
I will be sending out some squares very soon!
The afgans are beautiful! -
Hi all,
I am finally ready to send out some squares. I have about 15. Don't know how some of you make them so fast??? I guess I need to know who to send them to and the address? The afghan's I've seen are just beautiful. Great job ladies!
Suzanne -
Madison that is awesome
-
Thanks Lisa....
It takes 42 squares to make one afghan....I mailed 3 this week...so I used 126 squares......
You are all awesome because 126 squares is one heck of a lot of squares ..
So all of you are awesome
Hugs, Madison -
Beautiful, Beautiful!
Who needs more squares? Yup, I've been slow, but I've got some to send!
Hugs,
Denise -
Denise, I need some squares....I seriously depleted my supply with the 3 afghans mailed this week.
Thanks bunches, Madison -
I am ok on squares as Madison is working overtime and way ahead of me at this point so send your squares to her for now.
I have an afghan almost finished...been a long week but will post a pic soon and then on to the next one!
hug all around
Vickie -
Madison...that is beautiful! Wow...I can't wait to finish the one I'm working on...lots of bright cheery colors. Are you doing single crochet around the squares? I am doing double crochet...thinking maybe I could switch if that's the way your doing it and it will save some time (and yarn!!).
Hugs
Vickie -
They are yours Madison! I'll get them out within a couple of days..if you need them sooner let me know and I'll send what I have (18 I think).
Hugs,
Denise -
Denise, no rush...I have family obligations until the weekend...so I have put the crochet needle down for a few days.
Hugs, Madison -
Madison, I have 13 squares ready to send and one half way done. Do you want them or would you prefer that I continue to just send mine to Vickie?
-
Vickie, do you need AlwaysHope's squares? Let me know.
Alwayshope.....let's see if Vickie needs some squares at this time.
Thanks bunches, Hugs, Madison -
Vickie just said she was okay on the squares but I get the message. No worries.

I just sent you a PM...I am confused....I missed something somewhere along the line.....I did not see where Vickie was okay on the squares. My error in not reading up further and not realizing that the post was directed just to me.....like I said my error....and it was a innocent error.
Yes, I need squares. I just used 126 squares in 3 afghans that were mailed Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of this week. I don't have enough to finish another afghan, but didn't want to take any squares if Vickie needed them.
Madison -
Great Madison, then please pm me your address and I'll have them in the mail tomorrow.
-
Madison, I will also be sending about 14 or 15 squares in the next few days. Mine are almost all beige!! Had several skeins of Lee Wards beige yarn leftover from an old fisherman afghan project. How long have they been out of business? I am dating mysef. Hahahaha -- Donna in VA
-
Those should go nicely with the ones I'm sending Donna. Mine are blues, purples, pinks and a variegated with all those blended together
-
Madison,
I have a few squares done and will make more tonight so will get them in the mail the end of the week. I havent counted so I dont know how many I have but will try to get as many as I can done before shipping them on Friday...
Your work is beautiful!!!!
Hugs
Jule -
Vickie, I am doing single crochet around the squares....I find single crochet gives me more "wiggle room" to make them all fit together....Then I run a single crochet around the entire afghan...then a triple crochet to finish.....
Hugs, Madison -
Oh My Goodness...I received some beautiful squares from CY's Aunt Louise.....I am going to put one of these squares in the CENTER of the next afghan....thank you so very much Aunt Louise.....and YES, we are keeping CY and all of our bc sisters in our hearts and in our prayers.
Thank you so very much, The Community Afghan Goup

Sorry this took so long to post, guys, but I've been just a leetle busy. For those who don't know, I lost Eddie on May 6. We had gone to Boston to see if he was a candidate for a stem cell transplant. He died suddenly and unexpectedly at his sister's house late Sunday evening. He never got to see a doctor. He loved the afghan. It was ready to pack for when he went back to get healed. I guess God decided he needed to be healed sooner.
-
Aww Fancy,
That is such a beautiful picture. I'm so glad the afghan helped with a smile. I am so sorry about the loss of your dear husband. I hope you are doing better. Many caring thoughts and prayers to you.
Hugs,
Sue
