I just wanted to pop in and say WHOA! In the few weeks since the announcement of the EVERY STATE CHALLENGE, we have gained almost 100 new likes on our facebook page, several emails, ravelry forum posts, and website comments/questions. This is a remarkable accomplishment. In my opinion, this challenge is a success already.
The SE Michigan/NW Ohio group is hosting a sorting party at the American Legion in Saline, MI, on March 6th. I will post details this weekend. I can tell you there are at least 15 large plastic bins of squares needing to be sorted. I am excited to find out how many blankets we have waiting to be made.
The Portland, Oregon chapter of Love-Squared is off to a great start. So far, I have received over 200 squares. Word is spreading and I expect there will be more coming this way soon. I am looking into family shelters as well as other donation locations in thePortland, Oregon area. I am open to suggestions.
