Making some progress


Here it is the start of another week which means it is time to figure out what I have been working on besides trying to get other work done during the last week.

Pandemic - this is the cross stitch project that got the attention in the last week and I am extremely happy with the progress that I was able to make on it. I wasn't sure how much I would be able to achieve in the last week, but I do know that once I started things seems to flow.

I have been working on trying to get another page either finished or close to a finish but this week I didn't get a page finish, but I am pretty close to that. It does feel good seeing that I have been able to continue to move this project forward. It would be nice to see another page finish, but at least I know that next time I pick up this project I should be able to get that page finished and will see what else I can achieve. 

Preemie items - over the last little while I have been trying to make some progress on getting some preemie items finished. I have worked on a couple of hats and the first one did end up being extremely large, so now to figure out making sure that I can get some smaller hats completed.

I am currently working on a preemie blanket which hopefully I can get it completed this week so that is something else that is on the list of things to complete. These items don't normally take too long to finish so I will be trying to continue to make progress on this stuff. I also have another preemie blanket on the go which I should be able to get done quickly so that is another project that will get a picture taken soon. I have a v-stitch blanket that I have been working on and that just needs a bit of time before it is finished.

It has been so nice being able to pick up and work on some of the small projects so we will see what I can get done in the next couple of weeks. Just seeing progress on hats and blankets is making me happy so we will wee what happens moving forward.

I was also able to finish a blanket that I had started a few years ago. It was going to be a bigger baby blanket but I decided it was large enough so I crocheted the border around it and it will also be added to the items that I will be donating.

Other projects - I haven't been able to work on any of the other projects this week because I have been trying to stay focused as much as possible. Hopefully soon I will be picking up something else and maybe move it forward. I know that I would like to get some English Paper Piecing done soon so that is something that I am going to have to work on.

I hope everyone is finding that bit of time each day to do something that you enjoy doing. It doesn't have to be anything big; it can simply be taking those few minutes to just sit and relax and not do anything. If things go well, I hope to have more progress on things to show you next week. Hope everyone has a good week, and I will be back next Monday.
