    Sorry it took so long to set up

    Looking forward to seeing all the wonderful creations again

    Happy New Year to all
  • I admit defeat. I completed 11 of the items on my list, worked on 2 more and dumped the last. I also did a couple of other things, so I think I did 14 things, but not always the same 14.

    Anyway, well done to all!

    I'll sit out 2015, but wish everyone all the best with their goals. :)

    Well i just squeaked in at the 11th hour (7pm new years eve to be exact) when i suddenly thought for #14 i will darn all my socks in need. That would be doable and very mse. It's been a joy and i've learnt new things as you'll see from my list. It's not my over-ambitious list 1st jan 2014 but it's a list i'm happy with, and i think that would make soulie happy :-)

    Love the completed band sweetcarer, it has made me quite emotional watching it complete.

    I've signed up for 2015, even if you don't compete all 15, it would be lovely if you joined just so we can all encourage and admire the progress made on each other projects.

    Happy new year all

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Well I didn't complete the 14 but I managed 12 so not as bad as I thought I'd be!

    Unfortunately I am unable to access flickr (I can't upload or look at photos anymore) so have only seen what pics have been posted on this thread it's self. There's been some fantastic projects, well done to each and every one of you, whether you completed your goals or not!

    I'm up for another year, I'll see you all on the other thread!
