[Nfb-krafters-korner] Seniors and craft project

[Denise Shaible]

Terry,

I was actually going to suggest this for a fund raiser for KK.  I mean, 
several of us knit and could decide on what we want to do and then bring all 
of our squares and sew them together at Convention and then raffle the 
afghan off.  It's interesting that you mentioned that.

Regards,

Denise

One thing I have seen as a fund raiser...is to crochet different blocks and 
then put them together for a beautiful afghan. Each block can be a different 
design.
HOpe this helps.
