Crochet Crazy

This is a slow project. Not that it is difficult, or anything. Only that I don't work on it very often. 
I may only add a row or two in a week. I love how the changing color each row makes for a fun change each row and the overall effect is fun. 

Pattern: 6-Day Crochet Star blanket from Betty McKnit

Quilts for Kids: December

For December I dropped off 17 quilted quilted, two unfinished tops, and some batting scraps for making quilted tote bags.
I picked up 14 finished tops and one kit. 
I also picked up some donated fabric to keep me busy until the January meeting.
