Thanks, Michelle! Hope you're doing better this week!

[] Work on DS13's birth sampler
[] Work on assembly of DS16's afghan
[] Begin DS13's Cub Scout scrapbook--he's been out over 2 years now

Can you see that all my projects are UFOs??? :haha: The DKs and DH just left this morning for 6 days of Boy Scout camp, so I'm hoping I can make some headway with my projects, even with DBrother's arrival on Tuesday.

Good luck to you all this week!

I better keep it simple... Lesson planning gets my attention this week.

I'll be making the angels this week. I tried getting supplies last night from Wal-Mart, but they didn't have the right wire. I did however, buy the supplies for the clipboard and the notepads. I'm hoping I can follow the directions for the angels. :help:

Well, I have a bunch of things to get done in the next couple of weeks, but for simplicity, here is what I would like to accomplish this week:

Baby Quilt for cousins baby...Xmas gift
Coasters (2 to go but ran out of embroidery floss)
Halloween and Christmas card ideas picked out

 

[Dreamer]

Thanks Pattycakes, I'm doing better but still can't use my thumb so it makes crocheting hard.

I'll be slowly working on DFIL's Afghan and Christmas cards if I can talk DS into helping me again :haha:

 

[pattycakes]

Hope your DS will help you out, Dreamer!

My DBrother is arriving today for a 5-day visit, so this may be all I get done. We'll see!

I haven't been joining the challenges, but I have been working on my crafts...

I've knitted and completed a Comfort Shawl for my DMIL's present this year...

My projects I am working on right now are:

[ ] Knitting dishcloths (intended as stocking stuffers)

[ ] Embroidering our names onto our Chr stockings (DH's stocking and mine)

[ ] Altering memo pads and RSVP pens for Chr gifts

I will try to be better about actually posting my progress and time spent. I've been doing pretty good, but with the added "accountability" I'm hoping I'll do even better!

:skate:
