That's it. I'm done. I made all the bags I am going to make, all of the ornaments that I am going to make. My Christmas sewing list has all been checked off. Some crossed off for sanity's sake, but all the projects that needed to be done are done!
What a glorious feeling! And now just for fun... a recap of all the crazy holiday stitching...
Weekender Bags - all three of them!
Dopp Kits + a tutorial - to go with the weekenders
Lego bag
Skirt
Stocking
The Dress
The Dress that didn't work
Bags and ornaments - I didn't end up with pictures of all of them... but you get the point!
So what's on tap for 2012?
I have E's King size Zig Zag as my only currently in progress project. Wow. Only one. Weird.
I am still working on Skill Builders Sampler! I still need to make block 20, but that's going to have to wait until next week.
I have joined in a Quilting Bee for 2012! We are called the Beejeebers, and it is hosted by Melissa at Happy Quilting! I am totally excited!! Funny story - Melissa asked for name suggestions, and I recommended Beejeebers as a joke. I was telling her that this is my first Bee, and it scared the beejeebers out of me. So the next question was about a name, so I put down that. haha! Everyone liked it. I think that is just plain awesome! :)
Other than that - I plan on being a little more reasonable next year. My unlimited sewing budget was, once again - summarily rejected. So, no more than one quilt per month, and I want to do a lot more "other" stuff - like cloths, bags, and things. Should be a great year!!
Hope everyone out there has a wonderful holiday season, and a wonderful New Year!!
yay, congrats on making your goal!! put your feet up and have some cookies. :)
