    maria - your quilt is lovely - I like the little flowers you've added. That typewriter card is really clever.

    3 Easter cards for my grandchildren completed from my April card list.

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Brilliant cards greentiger
    florenceem I wouldn't feel bad giving a lesser quality, although I would just give one towel though. It may pose questions as to why they have more than everyone else? Which in turn may draw attention to it not being as nice quality as the others. Just my thoughts!
    Maria I'm not suprised your dd loves the blanket, its beautiful! My dd would love it too (and so would I)

    mrsMP I love your scarves. I'm trying to work out if they are fashion scarves or warming scarves?
    They look thin on the pic and to be used as a fashion statement, but with them being wool and crochet, do they keep you warm?

    carlamarie i would say they are more fashion than warming but because they are quite loopy with lots of 'air gaps' in they would i imagine hold some warmth around the neck. the grey one has a furry sort of edge to it so looks very warm and snuggly, that is a birthday present for my DD2 today.
