Enjoying what I am working on

Here it is the start of another week, and I was able to spend a bit of time working on my projects and that made me happy. Of course, there are other things that need to get done, but I at least got to see some progress on some projects.

Mini Unleash the Butterflies - here is the first project that I picked up and worked on last week as it was the WIPGO call so I wanted to make sure that I put a bit of time in on the piece. My WIPGO goal, is at least 500 stitches and I made sure to do that before another project was waiting for some attention.

I am loving seeing this piece slowly come together and I will see when this piece starts calling me to get it done. I still have a long way to go before I am even close to a finish, but I am enjoying seeing some of the different features start to appear. This project will be getting a bit more attention before the end of the year so that is good and maybe it will get more than a couple of days worth of stitching on it. 

Pandemic - here is the piece that was calling to me and so I figured I would put some time into this piece. I normally work on it at least one week a month so this time it will get just a little bit more than that and I am fine with that.  I am trying to get this project completed soon so spending a couple extra days on it makes me happy.

I have enjoyed working on this piece and the best part is, I can pick a section that I want to work on and if I get tired of that section I just move onto another section. 

I still have a ways to go on this piece but at least moving it forward a bit at a time makes me happy. I am going to try and fill in some of those blank areas soon so that I get ready to roll it up again and see that I am getting closer to the top of the piece.

Little Meg Shawl - large version - this is the knitting project that I have been working on a bit at a time. There are over 300 stitches now on the needle, so it does take a bit of time to get even a couple of rows knit. I hope to continue to move this shawl forward this week as it would be nice to see it closer to a finish, but I am still a ways from seeing it finished but moving it forward makes me happy.

Other projects - I have been able to work on my English Paper Piecing a little bit this past week and that was nice. I hope to have more progress to show you at the end of the month. At least I know that I have been able to pick it up more this month than I have in the last few months.

I hope everyone is having a good October and it is hard to believe we are almost two thirds of the way through this month. Remember, to make sure you take that little bit of time for yourself each day to recharge your personal battery.

I hope to have some progress to show you next week.
