  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Here is a picture of the flag afghan I crocheted. I tried to sell it on ebay but it didn't get any bids. :sigh:

Thanks, ladies. I've sold 3 of these. The first two I sold for $50 in a craft sale and the money went to a children's home. Then I decided to raise the price to $75 for the one I sold in our church craft bazaar. It sold! This is the first I've attempted to sell to keep the money myself. If it doesn't sell I'll donate it again.

I crochet afghans, and never had success in selling them, for charity, or otherwise. People do not even want to spend what money is in it for the material. It's a lot of work for nothing.
I believe that is probably true.

I love it! I've always wanted to make one for my eldest brother who is a real patriot. Thanks for the inspiration.
It's really not a difficult pattern. The stars are a bit tedious but I really enjoy it.

That looks like a beautiful piece of art work. I can't imagine all the work that you put into that. The only attempt at crocheting I had, I decided to undertake the progect of making a king size afgan. I'm afraid I didn't know what I was doing. Three skeens of yarn into it and I had only made 5 rows, my mother in law asked to see it and it ended up being double the length of my living room and kitchen together. I felt stupid and never took it up again.
I admire your talent!:D
