Happy Friday Number 16

Skittering along in a hurry with a late Happy Friday post!

Not only have I been out all day, but dear husband has been battling for two days with a computer with total amnesia, which has been a worry.  I mean, I’m the one losing brain cells at an alarming rate, computers have the benefit of plug-in memories and stuff, don’t they?  I could really do with a plug-in memory…

Anyway, my Happy Friday is all about my lovely day with two fellow bloggers, Lisa of Bobobun and Celia of Purple Podded Peas.  We met up at Lisa’s gorgeous little country cottage, full of pretty things, to arrange the layout for the Do You Mind If I Knit blanket which we are making to raffle in aid of mental health.   A great deal of laughter as well as hard work went on and we now have a section each of the blanket to sew up before we get together again for the final assembly.  I’ll be telling you all about it as things progress, and I’m sure all of you who followed and loved Vanessa Cabban’s wonderful blog will want to join in with this tribute, so watch this space.

If you would like to take part in the draw please follow this link, it’s open worldwide.

    This sounds like it was lovely! I love the colours of the blanket.

    Hope the computer troubles get sorted out soon. It’s so frustrating when you just can’t understand what is going on!

    Blanket looks lovely! Since the arrival of my first grandchild, I’ve been very ‘into’ making blankets – last one was for Lilly’s dolly and now have about 3 more to put together. Hope hubby manages to sort out the computer, my laptop did that last November – just as we were in the middle of running a Handmade Pop-up shop. I couldn’t believe how totally lost I was without my laptop – total nightmare! I know have a new one but everything is in a different place thanks to Windows 8.1…..

    Been THERE, “DOWNLOADED” That!! — I cringe at the word “UPGRADE”…

    Lovely happy colours and you can see a lot of work has gone into the blanket for such a good cause. Makes it more fun when you can get together for a joint effort x

    Lovely to see the blanket in memory of Vanessa coming together – I did a few squares for it and it is great to be involved in these community crochet projects… I hope it does as well as the Spring Flower Blanket did – people are very, very generous. I hope your computer woes are sorted out soon – they are certainly unpredictable beasties xxxxxxx Kathryn

    Such a cheery blanket, and lucky you to have fellow bloggers close enough for get-togethers! Happy Sunday to you (and to the in-house computer technician). 😀
