Thread CAL

[jingles96]

Hi Everyone! :wave s

If you've been following along in the Thread topic, you know this has been coming, for everybody else, welcome to the party! I've started our first Thread CAL! :bad 2

I've set up a blog for it at www.jinglelady.us/crochet/ and a gallery to show off our WIPs here.

I'm all excited to 1) be the host and 2) see what all we come up with.

Oh, so I should tell you what our project is....anything thread! A bookmark, a doilie, a table runner, thread poncho, whatever ( a whole bunch of patterns can be found
here, just look under doily or bookmarks). Since so many of us are new to thread, we thought it would be best to leave the field open.

So, grab a small hook, pick up some thread, and join in the fun! If you're participating, just leave a comment on the blog or email me directly at crochet*DIE*SPAM*DIE* @ jinglelady.us with your website address and I'll link to you from the blog.

I think I've covered everything. Right? :fc

Oh, you know to remove the *DIE*SPAM*DIE* from the email address above, right?

Looking forward to crocheting with all of you fine ladies (and gents). :grouphug

I'm so excited!! I bought this book at Wal-Mart yesterday and hope to do the doily on the cover for my main project. I also have a couple other ideas for smaller side projects to work on too.

Also, I think it's a great idea to set up a separate blog for the CAL. I subscribed to it with Bloglines so I'll be totally up to date at all times. :danc

So exciting!
I started a doily called "The Square Doily with Rose Center" this morning. The rose part is done and I'm now working on the lace part. !
I have two more doilies and one more secret project (It's going to be a gift for my good friend) picked out for this CAL.

Hi Ladies -

I have a question about the gallery I set up for our CAL. Anybody familiar with the Gallery package from Sourceforge?

I wanted to set up an account for each member of our CAL so they could upload photos there themselves, but it seems that these users have the ability to rename the album, change titles and existing photos. And do this for all albumns, not just the Thread CAL. 2 Obviously I just want the users to be able to upload their own photos to a specific album and only be able to change their own photos.

Any ideas? ing2

Thanks!
