Housekeeping:

For Q2, I will not be doing the star tracking as we did in Q1. I love the idea of showing these sparkly markers of your finishes, but the time it takes to keep up with you speedy gifters means that sometimes I fall behind and someone doesn't get a star (or 3) when they should :(

For this quarter, if you have accepted and completed the Q2 Challenge, you will see a star by your name to indicate your # of entries (remember the bonus entry for knitting BIG for a Q4 gift). Please also tag your posts with Q2 Challenge FO. This will help me to track all the Challengers and their entries.

There will also be a prize drawing from all of you who post finishes out here for April, May, or June, so each time you finish something, please tag your post with Q2 FO. I will compile these at the end of June and draw from those names for some extra special goodies.
