This Week

This week, I've made two crochet stuffed animals. But I still have a couple more to go. Some of the things i started, i never finished. Mostly, because i started it, and had no idea how i would finish it. I am getting rather close to my goal, which i am very excited about! Though for some reason, school has became very busy. The next two weeks are mostly likely going to be finals weeks, and with that, many many tests will come.

This might be the last post i post up for the next couple weeks. So my goals until i believe i will be able to update my progress would be to dedicate as much time as i possibly can to this project. I will need to reach my goal, before my presentation.

I have about a month left to finish my goal and to prepare my presentation. I am very nervous for the presentation. I have been told, that it will be heavily graded and there will be lots of people attending. 

Wish me luck~!

This Week

This week so far, I made one new stuffed animal. Its blue, black, and white. It's very cute and is about 6-8 inches tall. I'm already starting on a new stuffed animal. I've finished a body, and half of the head. All i have to finish is a couple other parts and the rest of the head. I'm going to try to make a dinosaur. It's very small, but i think it will come out very cute. 

This upcoming week, i'm going to finish the one i started and finish a new one. Not only that, but I think i will have to start researching for my upcoming presentation.Our time is very scarce and limited. I think i'm not doing anything this weekend or that much for thanksgiving, so I will be finishing that. So far, I've counted up all the things i made. Which is about 8, which is also not that bad for such a beginner like me.

This week

This week i made two stuffed animals~! I made a little stuffed animal that kinda looks like a little mouse. But my sister begged me for it, so i gave it to her. It was rather small and only took me a couple hours to make. Now, I think I'm getting really good at it. I can crochet without really looking at it. Most the time when I am crocheting I am also watching television. I think its gotten easier, now that I know the basics of it. 

Next week my goal is to make at least two more. I'm pretty much on track with my work and progress. During this, it came to me that this really isn't about reaching the goal. Rather it's about the thought of it, and dedicating your time to make something.

During the week, I bought new yarn. I was running low on white yarn, because i always use it for everything i make. I also got some sewing needles big enough to sew my things together!! Before i got the sewing needles, i was using my crochet sticks to pull the string through the holes. That took a lot of time to pull through. Now that i actually have sewing needles, sewing body parts together has become a piece of cake~!
