'Crochet keeps our hands busy so our minds can rest. It is a gift to help quiet the world around us, if even for a moment. To create -- and think of those we create for --is a quiet prayer of hope, love and dreams all wrapped up in a hook, a book and a ball of yarn. Author Anonymous. Thanks Cynthia.

Challenge Squares arrive.

Good Afternoon,

Well it's so.....hot here in the UK today and I am just about managing to cope with this heat. Moving from room to room to keep cool I am sure everyone is the same.  My conservatory is the best place in the morning but in the afternoon boy is it hot! I am trying to do a little crocheting for myself but I can't even cope with that. It is far too hot to do anything.

I did have some good news today, I'm very pleased to be telling you that I have managed to sell the 10th Daffodil Blanket. If you remember we sent 9 off to the Hospices and the 10th was for auction.
But I have managed to sell it by private sale so I am so pleased. It sold for £100.00 and this will go off to Marie Curie. Thank you to the Lady concerned.

I would like to thank Katou today for the Challenge Squares received. They have arrived a little late as you know but they will go in to future Blankets. Here they are.

Inside the parcel was a very thoughtful gift for me!

Katou had very kindly crocheted me some slippers and they are so comfy!

You are sweet Katou, thank you very much.
