52 projects in 52 weeks anyone?

Who wants to take a challenge? I'm stealing the idea from a Ravelry group

. 52 projects in 52 weeks. They can be any craft project you'd like-small or big. Several small ones help make way for big ones. You can combine crafts or do all of them in the same thing (ie sewing, knitting, etc). Feel free to post links or pictures as you go.

Everyone's lists:

I don't knit, so I certainly can't do that part!! With the little one coming in April, I just can't commit to something like this, but I think it's a great, fun idea!! I think I'm crazy enough for doing the Project 365 (photo a day) thing.

Good luck with it all!!!!

Hey that totally counts! I'm saying ANY craft-photography included if you would like. The point is for it to challenge you

Sweet! Then I'm in.

The project 365 is definitely challenging me! I thought "oh, it'll be easy" but there are days when I'm getting back up out of bed going "uh oh, what am I going to snap a picture of really quickly?" lol. And then are days when I wind up finding a ton of things to take pics of!!

So you have to take one every day? That would be hard! That sounds like even more of a challenge than I first thought! You'll have to post some of your favorites as you go-or do a blog with all of them or something

i'm trying to do 1 recon a week for my blog, so that probably fits

What do you mean? Anything you see fit totally works I'm just curious what you do

Lanieree · 01-26-2010, 03:29 PM

I accept that challenge! I'll be finishing a project as soon as I get home from work, so that can be my first one.

If we do 3 or 4 projects in one week, do they all count?

I'll post pictures of my latest craft on my blog tonight. I'm pretty proud of it

Absolutely! I'm counting every pair of socks or booties I make, every hat, etc. I'm also making several BIG projects that may take several weeks so the several in a week totally count
