Hello from CT!

I joined this group a few days ago, and I thought I should briefly introduce myself. My name is Priscilla, and I live in Connecticut. I have been knitting and crocheting most of my life, and I donate a lot of what I make to charity. I have been a member of 25 Things for Charity for almost a year, which is how I found all of you. I also belong to a local crochet guild, and we do 3 big donations a year. We donate chemo hats and preemie blankets to our local hospital throughout the year, and we donate hat, mitten and scarf sets to the Salvation Army every December. But I am also willing to help other causes, as I have time.

I have one FO already to add to your April total - a crocheted baby blanket that I will be donating to Project Linus some time next week. The blanket is 24"X36", and I used Lion Brand Pound of Love in purple and white.

I have made 2 squares for WUA since I found all of you, but I hope to get a few more done over the next week, so I will post a picture of all of them at a later time. And I had time yesterday to get some Red Heart in Claret and Simply Soft in Lemonade, so I hope to start on some 12" squares this weekend.

I will post FOs over here, but you are all more than welcome to visit my blog as well for progress updates. I do have one question - do you count items when they are donated or when they are finished? I finish items all the time for my guild, but I don't always turn them in until we have a date when they will actually be donated.

Thank you for the opportunity to be a part of this community. I have a goal of making 100 items for charity this year, so I am very excited to have found you all. I am really looking forward to participating and adding to those monthly totals!
