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.
