Just finished the sixth blanket for the Linus Project. It was the twin size crochet basket weave pattern afghan that needed all the loose yarns worked in and trimmed. It will keep someone nice and warm. It is made of all the leftover balls of yarn that have accumulated over the last year. It feels good to have it done. There are two smaller afghans and three quilts. I have several more that I would like to start working on so that I can have a dozen before I contact them to deliver.
I also spent more time today working on preparing items for my store. butterflyplace.etsy.com. All the pictures are taken and edited and now it's just a matter of finding the time to get them listed. I haven't done much thrifting this past month. Most of the items have come from the boxes moved and just the stash hanging around that needs to be downsized.
This week has been a learning week. My daughter and a great California gal are teaching me more about the Internet and how to make it work for me. The challenge has been a newsletter for my etsy store. They've helped me create a mailing list on excel and create buttons for my page. They make it look so easy, but teaching me has been an experience for them both. I can still learn. How exciting.

i love the second blanket... you are doing awesome :)
That one is awesome! It's huge and made from every scrap of yarn we had left in the apartment!
Thank you ladies.
I had a friend that made baby quilts for charity and hospitals that needed them. She is gone now, but she left a lasting memory with all her work.
I was blessed with healthy children but have seen the pain of mothers with I'll children. It can be so heartbreaking. If some small scraps of fabric or yarn can make a difference for someone why not do it.
