I have started to read the book required for the What's Your Beef badge. Once that is finished I will be able to apply for all 3 levels of the badge.

Can you ask for more than one level at a time? I thought each level had to be requested separately.

They do have to be requested separately and you have to earn the beginner first. Sometimes though when working on them something takes longer (like reading a book) and the advanced gets finished first.

Yes exactly what Heather said. The books are what take me the longest, but I will finish all the tasks required for the first badge and then start the second set of tasks.
Way to go Heather on finishing the book! Hopefully you get time soon to apply for them.

Krista I look forward to seeing your flag when you finish. I may have missed it, is this macrame?

Thanks Denise! I am hoping once school starts again I will have some more free time to work on it. Yes it is macrame.

Here are my finished 4 Watercolors for my Intermediate Make it Pretty Badge. I have found that I need to relax and not stress over my art and I need lots of help with shading and blending. Next is a painting with oils for my expert badge, now that’s a challenge.
