I crochet, so I know how much endless time those afghans take.<br /><br />Our ladies' group is stuffing stockings this Saturday for the shut-ins. So I've been crocheting cotton wash clothes to include in the stockings. My daughter has been baking breads to bless those that have blessed us and for some new neighbors. <br />Glad to hear Bluey is seeing answered prayer.<br />Blessings,<br />LeslieLeslie McKinleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08082544707682903607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5879795385972045418.post-61344436298983655102017-11-09T15:37:06.660-08:002017-11-09T15:37:06.660-08:00Thank you everyone for participating and for comme...Thank you everyone for participating and for commenting!

I l...Wow, Bluebirds...those gifts are beautiful!!! I love the colors on the quilts and on the crocheted afghans! Lorraine's card sets are lovely and Tanya's cloths are too beautiful to use!! And all the food looks delish! <br /><br />The crocheted rug is made out of old sheets that were ripped and crocheted. It was meant to be about three times bigger than I ended up leaving it...it hurt my hands to make and I hated ripping the strips (what a mess!!), but I loved the effect, so it kept sitting in my "to do" pile for at least 4-5 years. I finally just blitzed it until it was big enough to be serviceable! It's definitely a frugal project (cost=0) and I do like it on the floor...but I'd think twice about making another one! :)<br /><br />Love, Jen in NSAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5879795385972045418.post-34057728888123303492017-11-09T06:48:43.782-08:002017-11-09T06:48:43.782-08:00Jane, fabulous about Bluey!!!

I know it gets the rest of us inspired to create. Everyone did a great job, and I love Jen's crocheted floor rug! I've tried to crochet in a circle and it never turns our right. I also really like the idea of giving food as a practical gift. (And I do love fruitcake with coffee in the morning.) I think everyone would love receiving that. Thanks for doing this, Annabel.

Thank you Annabel for organising the Crafty Prayer Warriors for us. Bluey is recovering in leaps and bounds. We have gone from being told to be hopeful but prepare for the worst on Friday, to him calling me this morning to say he wont be being transferred home but will be released tomorrow and can I come and get him. There was some form of divine intervention and you were all a part of that. I cannot say thank you enough.Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06964345893499561504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5879795385972045418.post-12489536716799293232017-11-07T18:12:58.896-08:002017-11-07T18:12:58.896-08:00Hi Annabelle, Thank you for sharing pictures of a...Hi Annabelle, Thank you for sharing pictures of all this talent.
