Ok...at the in Dec. we sent over 50 blankets/afghans to the USS Eisenhower. This month we have picked a new ship to work on. (Drum roll) the new ship is...the USS John Paul Jones, DDG- 53. The John Paul Jones is an Arleigh Burke class destroy and is based out of San Diego. The picture I have included is a picture of them in Pearl Harbor. Congrats to the John Paul Jones. We will be sending blankets to them on March.

HI Anita. Sorry I haven't written but I am mostly on Navy for Moms. I kinda forget to pop in here. We are working on blanketing the USS Eisenhower. It is an aircraft carrier so it is a huge job. So far we have approximately 50 afghans that are going out to the ship next week. I will make sure I come back here to post the next ship we are working on. Take care. Hope all is well with you and your family.

Hi, I haven't been on lately. Trying to get ready for a craft fair in 2 weeks. I have so much to do and so little time to do it in. But I will get some blankets out to you as soon as I can.

Hi girls, i am working on a crocheted one at the moment. It's made out of the same kind of crochet cotton you make wash clothes out of. In fact, I am making strips, the width of a wash cloth, and then I am going to put them together. I came up with the idea a few yrs ago when the wash clothes weren't selling at the craft fairs. It really works up nice.

I want to share my latest afghan with everyone. It is a more difficult pattern than I have tried before. It is called "patchwork sampler afghan" available on Lionbrand.com in their free pattern section. It is a strip afghan. There are 5 strips that are patterned and 2 side strips. The ends are finished in a lace pattern. Here are a couple of pictures of what I have so far. It is a lot of fun and seems to be working up fairly quickly.
