On parcel opening day at Ronda's home, if she gets a chance she enjoys taking photographs of various items received from the Post Office.  Obviously, Ronda cannot be expected to take pics of everything, but it would be nice from time-to-time to see what arrives.  Many wonderful contributors do not feature their work on the Forum so we are likely to get a chance to see other interesting garments and squares!

    • What super photos!  I am SO glad we were able to send such a phenomenal number of beanies to the Community Policing Forum's Christmas outreach in Kya Sands and I love the idea of rolling up the blankets and tying them with a white ribbon.  Such a feast for the eyes here, so very inspiring. Thank you so much Wendy and whoever else took the photos, these are marvellous!

    • THANKS for sharing.  This always makes me want to crochet 24X7  

      • Knitting 24/7 would be my idea of heaven.  :))

        • Same here, except for me it's crocheting.

    • What wonderful pictures. Just getting me in the mood to start knitting again.
    • I see some more of Sharon's squares here...hope she is not too busy packing or getting ready for Christmas to take a quick peek...lol.

      • Bev, you have a great memory for squares!   I recognize some of my squares from the Africa and Mandela Challenge, including the one with footprints --- a 2nd try, using the pattern that Robin shared because my first effort wasn't great -- and the rainbow zebra, etc.

        But I really love the picture of those huge stacks of blankets in the "blanket room" -- they are almost as tall as Wendy!  Isn't that wonderful!!!

        And I love the wonderful new way they have developed to deliver blankets/sweaters/hats during the hot weather by rolling them up and tying with ribbon.  It means more warmth can be delivered all year, and the children get a 2nd fun event when the cool weather arrives and they get to open their "roll" and try out some warmth.  Such great minds at work in South Africa!
