Week Seven Of Project 52

 Week seven of Project 52 has me really thinking.  It is Thanksgiving this week and my time will be limited.  Family time comes in to play big time this week.  So I think I will do another Doug The Bug pincushion.  I had 4 cut out, so it's not like it's out of the question.

Here is week six's project,  Doug The Bug:


I followed the directions, sewing the front and back together and turning it.  I am not fond of this at all!  I like the way I did it the first time, shown here.  The next one I make for week seven will be put together more like the very first one from 2013.

Week Six of Project 52

 This is week six of Project 52 and time for a new project.  

This time I think I'm going to pick a hand sewing project.  And that project is Doug The Bug!


I made this pincushion in September of 2013.  You can see a picture here.  I cut out four more of this pattern so I have it listed for 4 different weeks on Project 52.  Not sure why I cut out so many more but since they are cut out, I will get them sewn up.  It's nice to have something to do while watching TV in the evening with my husband.

Week Five Of Project 52

 Week five of Project 52 has me pulling another easy project.  This time I'm going to finish up fabric boxes.  I made a bunch for Wings Of Hope and for my co-workers.  The leftovers are in the project box.  I also had fabrics pulled and some are cut but never finished.

Project 52 Progress

 Project 52 progress was made this past week!  I finished the wrist lanyards.


And Pam's Garden is a top!  WooHoo!



After I got the fencing done, I realized there should have been a sashing around the flowers. I like it without it, but I think I'm going to take it apart and put the sashing on.  When you do that, it has one more fence post on each section of fencing, which I think gives a more finished look to the garden.  So close to being completed.  Oh well.

Week Four of Project 52

I can't believe how fast the weeks go by, it's Week Four of Project 52!  I decided that it has to be a super easy one if I'm going to get it done, so I am finishing up the wrist lanyards.


 All I have to do is sew the last X to attach the fabric to the D ring.

I did finish the inside garden on Week Three's project along with one side of the garden fence.  The flower blocks were a little off, as points were cut off on some flowers, but my piecing skills have improved so much since I started this little quilt.  I do love how it is finishing up.


I will continue to work on the fence sections and also piece Patched Hearts.  I did get three or four Patched Hearts completed as Leader/Enders.  These projects are definitely taking longer to finish than I thought they would.
