Some good progress

Here it is the start of another week and of course there are things that need my attention. The weather is warming up which is nice so that means that spring will hopefully be arriving soon. 

This past week I was able to spend some working on my projects and having a focus has been nice because it is helping me get things moved forward and see progress on some of my projects.

Mini The Forgotten - here is the cross stitch project that was my focus for the last week. It was one of my WIPGO calls for March, so I picked it up and was able to focus on moving it forward a bit.

I am very happy with the progress that I was able to get on it because I am getting closer to have another row of pages done and that makes me happy. I hope to be able to get the rest of this row of pages done before long and then I will only have four pages left to go on it. Yesterday, I was looking at the picture of where it was at the beginning of January, and I was amazed at how much I have been able to get done on it.

This project is now going away for this week as I have another project that was called for WIPGO so I will give it some attention and see how it goes.

Scarf in the round - I did pick up and work on my scarf this week and I am loving having a project like this that I can just pick up and work on when I have those few minutes. It is a lot of fun having a project like this because it sits near my desk and then I have those few minutes I can pick it up and add a few stitches and then put it down again.

I don't have any idea when this project is going to be finished but that doesn't bother me because I am happy having a project that I can work on like this and at the end I will have a scarf that I will be happy to have.

This coming week I will see how much more of it I can get done as I am thinking that I will have bits of time where I can pick it up and work on. We will see what it looks like next Monday as being able to move it forward a bit more this week will make me happy.


Ex-boyfriend shawl - here is the shawl that did get a bit of attention this past week, so I am slowly moving it forward. It is a challenge working with the yarn that I picked for this shawl, but I am finding a way to get move of the shawl done.

I wasn't sure how to motive myself to pick up this shawl, so I decided to try and work on it for 30 minutes at a time. That doesn't seem like a long time, and it isn't, but I am finally starting to move this shawl forward again which is good. I am going to see how it goes this week because I am not certain if it will get 30 minutes each day but at least I am going to try and do it some days to continue to move it forward. The feel of the shawl is so nice and soft because of the yarn that I am using it is just not as nice to work with as I had hoped.

Other projects - I have been working on a couple of other projects, but they aren't far enough along to show them yet. Maybe after this week I will have something to show but will have to wait and see how it goes.

I know that this week I should have some time to work on my stitching a bit so we will see what progress I can make on the different projects. I hope to continue to move both knitting projects forward again because that would be nice to see some progress on both. There is going to be a different cross stitch project for this week and hopefully I will make some progress on it. 

If things go well, I should have some projects to show you next week with some progress on them. Finding that time each day to recharge my personal battery has been important. I hope you are also finding that bit of time to recharge your personal battery as well.

Have a good week and I will be back next week to show you what I have been able to get done.
