I just submitted my requirements for all three levels of the Make It Easy: Collect It! merit badge to Brian. For any of you who have a collection of ANYthing, this is a very easy merit badge if you have a collection of something. I used my collection of antique crocheted potholders as the collection for this merit badge.
Connie - you could use your collection of antique Valentines. That would make a super submission and definitely fit the requirements for all three levels. |

Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything.
Tell God what you need, and thank him for what he has done.
Philippians 4:6
Just follow God unquestioningly.
Because you love Him so, for if you trust His judgment there is nothing you need to know.

| Thanks, Darlene. I'm working on the Button Up badge now - have my button boxes out to sort through. I think I need a couple wooden and metal buttons. I have a lot of older buttons, but not the older wooden or metal ones. |

| That's great, Linda! I'm working on badges for scrapbooking, gardening, greatest generation and now the new ufo badge. I'm ready to submit on a couple but just haven't had a block of time to do it . . . story of my life, sigh! :) |
Happy Day!

YEE HAW! I just received my merit badge certificates for the Beginner, Intermediate, and Expert levels of the Make it Easy: Collect It! merit badge. My submission is posted on the next-to-last page of the merit badges thread.
That makes 4 I've completed this year so far. I'm working on quite a few at the same time. |

Congrats Linda! Good for you!
I've been eying the apron one. I ordered MJF apron pattern only to find out, after I received the pattern, that I had ordered the child version! Perhaps wishful thinking on my part. So I will go back and hopefully order the right thing! I'd like to use that one for intermediate. I have a clothespin apron pattern that I intend to make as my first project. |

Carole -
If you call Brian, I'm sure they will take it back. He's very good at helping out.

It is fun to work on them, though I feel like I am still in Girl Scouts. LOL!

| The paperwork is the hardest part. LOL! I've done a lot of the crochet and quilting and UFO projects, just need to write them up and photograph. I've noticed a lot of people don't write much. I try to answer each question the requirements mention. |

Linda, I would agree that Brian is a sweetheart. I'll keep the pattern. I'm sure I'll find a good home for it.
I was hoping to get some badge work done, but I was beat! Not sure what I did last night! lol Oh yea, I hand embroidered! Started a new project ... squirrel ... |

| Wow, Linda, you Amy are on a real roll here lately!! Congratulations on on staying focused and finishing up those badge requirements. I need to get hoppin' and do some myself. It seems lately that I have been reading and piddlying about with this and that. I think after our trip in May, I am going to work on some badges over the long hot summer. |

I've decided that I was going to work on my embroidery badge. What held me back was that I didn't want to stitch the pattern that was suggested. No offense to anyone, it's just that if I'm going to put that amount of hours on a hand embroidery project (it can take me up to 6 hours per towels depending on the pattern, some I have over 10 hours) I wanted it to be something I would like. I contacted Brian and he informed me that I can do another pattern.
Last week someone posted, I think it was our very own Linda, on the main forum about a place where you can buy hand embroidery transfers (www.colonialpatterns.com). I checked it out and decided to order these (and quite a few more patterns lol) for the intermediate level - "days of the weeks":
I haven't decided which one I'll stitched, I like them both! lol |
