Progress but nothing new.

So on Monday I made a little bit of progress on completing some projects that have been stacking up. they are repeats of ones I've already shown on the blog before though. Now I just have a million and one other projects lined up to do. That's half my problem. I have far too many ideas.

A while back I showed you a 2x4 turkey that I made. I had a couple more started and then their parts were sitting in a basket for quite some time. I finally got around to finishing them. I figured since it's almost Thanksgiving it was now or they would sit around till next year.

I'm getting a bit lazy with the pictures. All of them have been cell phone pictures lately.

Aside from these, I also completed another set of 5 of the embroidery hoop ornaments. Now I'm out of hoops so I'm going to have to order some more.

Seen one, you've seen them all

I'm beginning to think I'm in a rut with the cakes I do at work. Any more it seems like you've seen one you've seen them all. This was one I did last Friday

Bought myself a treat

Saturday I was walking through Walmart and saw a display in the middle of the isle that had shoes and boots. The side I was looking at had a reduced sign that said $5. I couldn't resist I bought a pair.

I sent the below picture to my daughter and said they were only $5 and I couldn't resist. She sent a text back saying that I paid $5 too much for them.

I thought they were kind of fun.

A finish

I have another project finished. My daughter has been wanting me to make her an apron. I pinned a pattern on Pinterest a while back and sort of procrastinated about doing it. She wanted a certain fabric and I was supposed to buy it. Honestly I couldn't even remember what the fabric was. Finally I bought some Thanksgiving themed fabric and got started. It took me another week or so before I actually finished it.

These are not great pictures but this first one has a bonus in it with Gibbs in the background. Please just look at the apron and Gibbs and ignore the fact that I'm having a bad hair day and it's pulled back in a pony tail.

I told her that her apron was done and it was full of imperfections and that if she wanted another one she could make it herself. It wasn't that difficult but I wasn't quite satisfied with how it turned out.
