Awesome!  The Show & Tell at yesterday's Northern IL Chapter of the CGOA was fun.  Here is a photo of one of the Show & Tell items.  Annie crocheted a ripple baby blanket.  I liked the bright contrasting colors so I took a picture of it.

Dana, one of the founding members of the Crochet Guild started about 15 years ago, passed away this month.  Most  of us had no idea that Dana was seiously ill.  While sick, Dana asked Pam to bring a beautiful crochet necklace to the April meeting for Show & Tell.  A very busy Pam forgot to bring it last month.  However, bringing it this month was quite fortuitous because it served as an inspirational reminder of Dana's exquisite work.
  I personally was not that close to Dana but I will miss her at the meetings.  I found her work breathtaking.  I took a photo of Dana's last Show & Tell, and post it here in her memory, knowing that she will live on in her work.

Recently in a SparkPeople blog (Crochet Away the Pounds)  a question was asked "Does God Crochet?"  Well, I don't know the answer to that question, but I do know about someone else in Heaven who is probably trying to teach the angels how to crochet.....
