Sorry andrea your two didn't quite make it in before I did the table! Sorry I missed it! They will be included in the next table. Does that make your total now 4?

Loved the ezine that Sandy sent today. I'm going to order a tee shirt! I've finished 4 squares for the April race (two more in progress--one on my crochet hook and another on my knitting needles, depending on my mood!). My mom, Bev, has six total done now. I'm going to show her how to post messages herself tomorrow... The blankets look beautiful when they're sewn together, don't they?

Hi Tillymint, You can use what ever size you want as long as the squares are 8x8 inches or 20X20cm I tend to just make it up as I go along as each different type of wool I pick up will need a different number of stitches to make the size. I think also the size you come out with will depend on your tension.

Dochas22 is there another name I might know you under on my list? I have Bev listed but not you for some reason?

Hi Kerry--
I guess I didn't register for the race and make it onto your spreadsheet. I'm under a tight deadline for a manuscript and might not have time to do more than a few squares this month. But I'm in this for the longterm, anyway.

Vortex you are leaving us in the dust! How many squares in total have you and Grandma made now? I'm on my 43rd, and I thought that was an impressive number - you must have trillions by now.
