Making progress, a finish and another start

Here it is the start of another week and hopefully one where the weather will be nice. Of course, there is work that needs to get done so that is what I am going to be trying to achieve first. Hopefully this week I will find some time to also do some crafting.

Pandemic - here is the piece that I picked up and worked on again last week. I was going to work on a different project, but this one was calling to me, so I decided to work on it for a second week in a row. 

This past week I was able to finish another page of the pattern so that made me happy. It has been nice working on this piece and seeing the progress that I have been able to make on it. Being able to see the progress on this piece is making me happy. I still have a long way to go before this is finished but at least I am moving it forward and enjoying it. I am going to be putting this project down for a little while as there are other projects that I also want to make progress on.

Preemie blankets - this last week I continued to work on knitting the preemie blanket that I had on the go, and it didn't take me too long to get it finished. 

It is nice having that blanket finished and it is ready to be donated at the end of June to a hospital. I am going to be continuing to make some preemie items so that I have a few items to donate. This week I am going to try and work on getting some hats made as well so I am not just donating blankets.

After I finished the blue blanket that I was working on I immediately decided to start another blanket and have been able to make some good progress on it as well. 

Other projects - I haven't worked on any other projects this last week other than the preemie blankets and my cross stitch. It has been nice trying to stay focused on my craft projects.

I hope everyone is finding a bit of time each day to do something that you enjoy. Being able to recharge your personal battery is very important. It doesn't matter what you do as long as you find a bit of time for yourself.

This week I am going to work on my knitting again and see how much of it I can get done and I am going to work on some small cross stitch projects for a change as I would like to see some progress on them as well.

Have a good week and I hope to be able to show you some progress on things next week.
