Handmade Afghans to Our Armed Forces
http://donnayoung.org
Sheri wrote in her blog about Homemade Afghans Project (HAP)HAP web address: Rectangle6x9.org. HAP is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization dedicated to providing comfort to America’s military men and women wounded in service to our country. If you want to read more about HAP, you can at Rectangle6×9.org. If you cannot crochet or knit, you can still help by donating suppies to HAP. The supply list is at their website, it is titled, Wish List.
I cleared my dy workday and worked on two rectangles. I drew a 9 x 6 rectangle in my dy workbook and measured the crochet in progress by that rectangle frequently. I was a little rusty, but I managed to get two rectangles crocheted today.
Thank you Sheri for informing us about HAP.









You crochet too?!?!?!?!?
Is there anything that you can not/do not do???

Chocolatechic, there are many things I cannot do. Back-flips for instance, I can`t do those.
Michielle, teaching children textile arts really does have sweet rewards, doesn`t it. Not just that they are learning something useful, but I am also thinking of the projects that they make and moms sometimes get to keep.

This is probably a dumb question but what do you have in your DY notebook??? Looks like a composition book from the picture, would love to hear your ideas.
Thanks Tonya
PS. Where would I be without all your help!!! Thanks again.

The DY notebook is an ordinary composition book. I am using it to keep track of re-doing donnayoung.org.

I just saw this. I am not getting your blog in my blog surfer thingy :embarrass:
This is so you
I am crocheting them by the directions and if they do not look even I stretch the out to the same size

p.s. the best way to make sure your rectangles are the right size is to cut a retangle from cardboard (a ceral box works great). Simply lay your rectangle on the cardboard cut out to check size.
