definitely will try a couple of these and make gifts! they look refreshing!
Fortunately my kids are grown and I do 99% of my shopping online, so I’m not really exhausted. Christmas festivities consist of Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, which means I’m not overtired or overworked. But I do love to crochet and will probably make a few of these for birthday gifts and get a head start on next Christmas. I’ll probably be making the bath set and the soap saver.
Dear Sirs:
I have been trying for 2 years now to finish an afghan for my pastor and his wife. Unfortunately, arthritis has kept me from being able to hold my needles for more than an hour or two at a time, and it doesn’t help that you have so many beautiful patterns that I keep changing my mind. However, I have now picked out a design from your cross-stitch patterns that I have decided on. My question is this. The bed has a 79″mattress. I am not sure what the measurements on my afghan should be. Could you help?
Thank you so much,
Sandra Alexander
