    Hi everyone, it's been a long time since posting with a wedding and 2 away breaks since. I've just uploaded a picture of the card I made for DS's wedding, I hope you like it.
    At the moment I'm finishing off a jumper for DH - it should be finished soon, I hope!
    So far my list is:-
    1) Complete a Fairisle tank top for me. Done except for sewing up
    2) Wedding sampler for son's wedding. Finished
    3) Finish off a cross stitch cushion cover started circa 1992 (it's on black fabric and so can only be done in the summer!)
    4) Make all Christmas Cards
    5)Make birthday cards - husband, done[/COLOR]
    6) prospective DiL. done
    7) [COLOR="rgb(46, 139, 87)"]cousin 1 done[/COLOR]
    8) cousin 2
    9) [COLOR="rgb(46, 139, 87)"]son done[/COLOR]
    10) sister

    11) Complete a quilted wall hanging, bought in California in 2009 when I finished work.
    12) Complete a crosstitch Thunderbird kit started in 2007
    13)Sew up cardigan finished last year (like others, I too hate sewing up
    14) Knit something for charity projects

    I am hoping to arrange all my craft stuff and make myself a little organized space and pop my challanges up on the wall to keep my bobbing along, as I have dropped the ball at the moment with being quite busy.

    Keep checking back to catch up though and looking on flickr and there are some lovely things being made - Florenceem pin cushion is fab!!
    Christmas is the most magical time of the year :santa2:

    gleeful - beautiful card.

    I had a kneeling pad that was falling to bits. I reused the filling/added some extra and sewed a new inner. I made two removable covers for the kneeling pad as it will get grubby on the floor. I have a mucky Mr F and a large dog.

  • Loving all the beautiful makes

    Florenceem Your covers for your various pieces of equipment are fabulous - such a great idea. Love the dressmaker dummy pincushion - so appropriate

    crafty crafty If i were you I would update my list with the things actually completed. :D

    I decided not to do a list for this challenge as I knew I would change my mind and my priorities throughout the year.

    I have completed project number 11 - only small but really enjoyed stitching it and everything (pattern, threads and fabric) came out of my stash :money:
