    Vickie, the afghan is beautiful. And yes, they are the bestest ladies.
    I sent one afghan out Express Mail yesterday. I am mailing one today Priority.
    Love, Madison

    Oh, I made sure my cat was NOT in the boxes before I packaged the afghans!!!

    Vickie,

    Another Beauty from you!!

    I keep saying I'm going to mail squares and they just keep laying there and adding up! If you ladies see a moving truck pull up, don't panic.........it means Denise finally boxed up the squares and couldn't cram them into the mailbox..so I called a Moving Co.!!
    Hugs,
    Denise

    I can't believe you all are working and still churning out these squares. You are the best. I'm still working on them. I'm just slow. I'm so slow sometimes my elevator doesn't make it to the top floor.

    I think I've got enough rectangles made ahead that I can indulge myself with a little hand crocheting...hahaha. I've been wanting to have a chance to get back to it. I have the CD from Liz and I'm gonna play that thing until I get that one little place that causes me problems, turning around. Wellll, at least i'm gonna TRY. Wish me luck.

    Hi girls, I mailed I think 19 squares to each of you earlier today. You guys are the best!

    Cheri - I'm determined to learn to double crochet! I need to play my CD also.

    Susan - my DH says I need to stop doing this and do something around the house. How dare he! He was just joking. Good thing as I do as I please nowdays.

    Hugs
    Liz

    Cheri: Don't you dare leave the Knifty Knitters and learn how to crochet!!

    Liz: My DH thinks all I do is make squares or play on the computer!! SHHH, we'll never tell!

    Susan: My elevator has never quite made it to the top floor!

    Hugs,
    Denise

    Dear (((((Sisters)))))
    I am overwhelmed with the most precious gift I have received in a long time. I wept tears of joy when the postman delivered a box today with the most beautiful afghan I have ever seen! I have wrapped myself today in your love and hugs and feel so blessed. There has been so much coldness in my heart for so long, and I can already feel the warmth returning. Perhaps I just might follow your advice and come sit in close by the fire. You are so amazing!!! I will never, ever forget this special thing you have done for me. Thank you so much for your prayers and thoughts and hugs. And oh thank you so so so so much for the beautiful afghan!!! It makes me want to crochet!!!
    God bless you all. Pam

    I do feel special, but not as special as all of you. You know Jesus said it is more blessed to give than to receive. I really don't know about that as blessed as I feel today! I love you all so much. I know I can make it one more day! Pam

    sending gentle flowerings from the meadows of my heart right back at you!!!!!!!

    It's just so awesome to see the smiles that one of the afagans puts on the recievers face. You can just see the smaile in the words they write! Hugs from all over are great!

    Vickie, Jules could use some more yarn while she's recovering from surgery to keep her busy. I'll try to send her some too!

    I am sending out yarn to three girls on Monday.
    I went to church today and got a big surprise. One of our members contributed 10 lapghans! They are beautiful! I am going to put our border around them and all our squares. I will post pictures when they are done.
    Once again...for a lack of better words...you girls are the very best!
    Love
    Vickie
