When I saw the list, I remembered the Rainforest one I like the idea of doing one in the browns & greens or your idea of starting with brown & going up with the greens or change it to Tropical Plantation -- grow pineapples, coffee, coconuts, flowers, sugar cane, etc here. We have different areas on the west coast that have such beautiful flowers, it would be great to do one centered around that. I'm not picky -- I have loved being able to knit my little section and want to be able to do more.
Wasn't there a Disneyland blanket, too? I thought I signed up for that one.

I remember someone mentioning the various colors, but don't recall what was decided -- too tired to search the thread tonight.
I'm willing to wait until most of these get finished, plus Christmas projects might slow down our progress.
I haven't done any research about donating blankets here on Maui. I don't know that there is much of a call for acrylic blankets here. I asked an expectant mother the other day what people give new babies for gifts, but I never got an answer. I would be happy if they were donated to a NICU or to a women's/family shelter.
