Aaaargh! So sorry but have missed the deadline, is posting today ok please? Sorry if I hold things up. I'll pm Pistey for the address.

I had almost finished my squares but was about 10 inches short of wool and had been waiting for some to arrive - it's just one edge of crochet to make it 6 inches I'll see what else I can do and send.

Off to read the thread now, am very behind.

Amy, it's the last posting day today so you haven't missed the deadline at all. You have a PM Smile

Today is the last posting date, so you're fine Amygurumi.

Pesky ends sewn in, square parcelled up and all ready to go. Wonders will never cease!
Even the sun is shining for walking down to the post office.
Now to get on with Mrs K's ...

Hey, that's brilliant Smile Thanks Knotty and TFC.

I'm still on my MN Lent embargo, so feel really out of it around here. Pistey kindly says blanket threads don't count so I'm allowed to read these Grin Am looking forward to seeing everyone's squares.

Lunchtime, yippeeee!!

Am so hungry!!!

The PM red light is on, I must away to my inbox box. Was very nearly at 900 PMs this morning, I wonder if we are there yet, and who it will be?!!!

RatherBeKnownAsPitsey · 19/03/2012 14:46

Just limbering up, doing a few stretches, getting ready for my sprint to the Post Office later..........

MinnieBar · 19/03/2012 15:38

Back from Post Office! Pesky Ends sewn in! Hurrah!

Posted my last two squares Smile. Kept the few grammes of wool leftover, as I can use them to do features when if there is need for another one.

RatherBeKnownAsPitsey · 19/03/2012 16:48

Just putting on my trainers........

TimeForCake · 19/03/2012 17:02

Go Pitsey go - clock's ticking! Just got back from posting mine. I even bought the envelope for the next one too.
Sounds silly, but I always feel a bit attached to my square when wrapping it up and posting it. Don't get me wrong, I curse it a lot when making it because I go wrong all the time, but when it's done, I always want to wish it well on it's journey towards the final beautiful blanket. Oh dear, now I sound a bit bonkers...

RatherBeOnThePiste · 19/03/2012 17:04

RatherBeOnThePiste · 19/03/2012 17:05

RatherBeOnThePiste · 19/03/2012 17:05
