The past couple years I have done fairly well at setting and keeping my crafting goals. I don’t always hit the overall for the year goal, but I definitely make forward progress.
Its my first Christmas as an officially married woman and my husband gave me this:
So let’s tackle that first and say… we are getting a machine suitable for quilting larger projects! A step up the ladder from my Janome DC2011 which I love.
I have another seven quilts, some started, some planned that I would like to tackle this year. I have one for a gift (Movie theme), and the guest room (greens and yellows). I have one to use up my white strip scraps from my snowman, and one to use up general scraps with the latest discovered tiling hexagon. And I have three that have started, including Knight’s Tour, Wedding Wishes and my now nearly infamously languishing in WIP land, Field of Stars.
On the knitting front, I have more socks (Going to go in for Sock Madness again I think) and some more lace, and trying to find the bottom of that second overflow stash box!
I have some great patterns and yarn combos in my queue.
I’d like to get a few more designs out of my head and onto a pattern as well.
And now onto the blog and not so crafty front….
Last year I posted 20 posts, which means a few months I just posted once… so this year I am going to aim for at least twice a month updates. This may mean a few more works in progress instead of dumps of finished items, but we shall see how it shakes out.
I also want to work on getting my craft space (which also flows a bit into my guest room) a bit more organized and usable. I want to read a few more books, and play a few more games too.
