April Update

So far, we have completed 4 afghan blankets. The first 2 were finished in February




The third blanket was the one we began last December but ran out of the edging yarn and only just completed last month. It looks kind of christmasy.

Blanket #4 uses burgundy and blue squares edged with white. And, pictured at the very bottom are two edged squares from blanket #5 which uses peach squares and yellow squares edged with forest green.



Aside from the blankets, we currently have in our inventory approximately 60 adult scarves with headbands or hats and a few junior scarves so we're pretty much on schedule. In late February we received financial support from Dartmouth Community Health Board /Nova Scotia Health Authority in the manner of $1000.00 which will, in part, fund this year's project.

We also conduct fundraisers throughout the year. In March, we sold tickets on two items, a 32 inch Haier color tv which was won by Adam Bennett and 4 Mooseheads tickets which were won by Steven Young. Sales from those tickets raised $300 for Last House on the Block Society.
