LOTS MORE DONATIONS FROM STOUFFVILLE

Her we are is Stouffville again, and we had two new member joined in so now the Stouffville group is up to ten member. That is amazing, we started in September 2010 and this April 2011. Since this group is growing fast we are looking for a place in Richmond Hill to start a Chapter there.
I checked out the main library today and will have a look at the other two next week. I hope one will work for us. I would let you know where and when.

Now here are the many items from Stouffville.




This V stitch scarf is from Sue,



and here is a beautiful Afghan Sue is showing.
The colours work well together.

Here is a beautiful peach hat scarf set Siobhan knitted.







Jone is a new member and she is working on a scarf.





There is Connie working on squares for a blanket.












Kathy is another new member and she is also working on a scarf.









This blanket I crocheted, It turned out OK I think. I did not get the sides as straight as I wanted, may next time I will. I found the pattern on the Lion Brand web site, and the pattern name is Wind Chime Afghan. If any one is interested in crocheting it.




Now for the fleece busting.as Tracy mentioned on her blog.
Tracy found her fleece bin and as you can see, she went nuts with it.
