Calling all knitters and
crocheters!

You are invited to a

“Block Party!”

When: March 27, 2010 at 9 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.

Where: At my house - email me for directions

What: Everyone brings 6” crocheted or knitted squares (blocks), and we all sew them together and make blankets for charities. Please use machine washable yarn.

R.S.V.P.: Please R.S.V.P. to me by emailing me.

Bring: Finished 6” squares, yarn or tapestry needles (please bring as many as you have because we might run out), and blanket squares you are working on (if you want) as we might also be a making squares on that day. I am also going to be collecting baby hats (made with baby soft yarn) for the hospital, so bring those too if you want. Email and ask me for patterns, or go to the following sites for more ideas for 6" squares. For knitting patterns go to http://www.halfknits.com/knitting-6-inch-block-patterns or http://www.knittingpatterncentral.com/directory/motifs_squares.php. For crocheting patterns go to http://www.crochetpatterncentral.com/directory/6in_squares.php or http://www.halfknits.com/crochet-6-inch-block-patterns/.

Join us for a morning of fun and make some new friends. Snacks and punch will be provided. There will also be door prizes. If you would like to help, but you can’t make the date, please give or mail your squares and baby hats to me ahead of time so we can use them. If you have any questions, please contact me using my email above.

I am very excited and I'm looking forward to the date and I hope you can come!!! And no, this blocking doesn't have anything to do with my first post that was about blocking. :-)
