Dear Aunty Mabel
I have decided that I have to finish the sampler afghan for my mom, Arnold and David 's bachelor circles, and JAC'S woven blanket by the end of May (2013). This means focus focus focus. Mom's blankie was meant for Mother's Day but I think it is more realistic to finish it for her birthday in July. I will keep working on all 4 afghans every day. I will post pictures as I finish each one.
Lots of love

Hi, my name is Colleen and I am a serial starter ...
Dear Aunty Mabel
So here is my first confession. As I sit in my armchair under my lamp in my lounge I realise I mess up my home with wips. In my lounge I have 2 Stratford circle afghans in a bucket at my feet, my moms Mother's Day sampler in a gift bag behind the couch, a traumatic looking green piece in a plastic box which I am trying free form in straight pieces with all the odd bits and pieces that have come to nothing over the years, also behind the couch and in the liquor cabinet I have Jac's definitively to be finished this year tartan afghan. Under the one Swedish Cliffe chair I have a diagonal stripe afghan and in the back of my cupboard I have the start of a Babette which is for my dad for Father's Day (not so sure for this year though). So I have to admit I have a problem. I am a serial afghan starter! But it's not my fault. I lay the blame squarely at the door of my Designeryarny and Playing Hooky/Haakuit friends who post things that I just have to try!
More soon.
Lots of love

What is 'off the hook' about?
Dear Aunty Mabel
This is going to be where I write letters to you about all the things I have crocheted, am crocheting and want to crochet some day. I will include the links to the patterns where I can so that you can check up on me or try the patterns out for yourself.
Lots of love,
C.
