Heather, the purple one is my favorite! I redid it 3 times to make it look just like the picture lol.
I finished my beginner mosaic badge! My mind is already wandering trying to figure out what I want to make for my intermediate level.

Thanks everyone.
Jill, I actually found this kit on Amazon. They had a bunch of designs, but I liked the star the best. It came with everything you need to make it. The instructions were a little vague, but I googled any questions I had. The brand is Vaescol.
I applied for my intermediate and expert lost art of letter writing on Wednesday. I still need to apply for my mosaic and macrame badge. I also started on my intermediate macrame last night.

I am in awe of everyone’s creations and completing those ufo’s. I will never catch up but I WILL begin! You’ll be hearing from me soon I hope.

Thanks, Krista. Those kits look like fun. I'll have to add them to my list of things to do.

Jill, they are fun. I think you will enjoy them.
I applied for my beginner level macrame and my beginner mosaic badges over the weekend. I am all caught up on the badges that need to be applied for. Now I am just working on some more. I am almost finished with my intermediate macrame.

My intermediate macrame is done! I made a large coaster to go under my plant on my end table. I am also making another light blue one for my mom and a dark blue for my MIL for Mother's day! I have really fallen in love with macrame.

It's so pretty Krista! Where do you find your patterns? Isn't macrame fun though?

Denise, I found this one on Pinterest. That is actually where I find most of the things I make! Yes, it has been so much fun. I am really enjoying it as a change from crochet. I am able to use all of my hands rather than just my wrists.

I love the color. Teal is my favorite. Where do you find cord small enough to make a coaster?

Krista that is so cool! I just finished my sampler for the beginner embroidery badge. I found a frame at the thrift store I just need to paint it and assemble it.

Denise, I purchased my cord from Amazon. This size is 3mm. It's actually not that small. It's about 12 inches from point to point. Once I finish mine ( because I gave mine to my mom since I didn't finish the second before Mother's day) I will take a picture of it under a plant for some comparison.
Shenandoah, your sampler is so pretty!

Thanks Denise! I’m working on getting the expert level badges I’ve earned so far embroidered and stitched onto my farmgirl tote. Definitely rusty but getting lots of practice! |

Denise, sorry for the delay, but I finally finished my macrame coaster. Here it is under my plant.
![](http://www.maryjanesfarm.org/Snitz/Images/2024/05/20240529_142922.jpg?v 58301694) I really like how the blue sticks out against the white.
