I have the beginnings of a list for 2015:

1. Make knitted iPod and iPad covers.
2. Knit a cardigan for myself out of chunky yarn I already have.
3. Construct a collage out of old postcards - possibly more than one.
4. Use Noro Japanese yarn to make a garment for myself.
5. Make more new cuddly toys - different designs to be created.
6. Greetings cards - develop new designs based upon knitting.
7. Work on existing toy story book (this didn't happen last year).
8-15 I will fill in at a later date!

Some more interesting projects here Owl fan; look forward to seeing them.:T

Finished the red pair of oven gloves, but seems I am unable to post pictures I'll try and post them when I am able to even if its at the end. Covered a tiny folding stool as well with the fabric, but now wondering what I am going to do when the fabric runs out - it was a remnant in a CS - Antique roses on a silvery background.
Owl fan - I wish I could knit so jealous of those with proper knitting tasks (I knit a bit and unravel it after a bit, normally when i can't sew due to light or something and need to do something with my hands.)

Oh FoS what a lovely scene. I agree with CarlaMarie that it would make a lovely cushion but don't make more work for yourself! How long did it take you? I've almost finished one tiny cross stitched rose for my Mum's card and that's taken me a couple of evenings. I know my evenings aren't long by the time I've finished work but still. . . I'm Captain Slow! Thanks for the inspiration for this btw; I'd been struggling with a card design from a book but seeing your Welsh dresser card sent me back to some Woman's Weekly craft specials and they had a 'rose' theme in. I've not stitched it in the right colours but it was all from stash.

I don't really time myself because I always have more than one project in progress at any time. This was partially completed when it was given to me by a friend some time in the summer. I'm counting it as one of my 15 because it is a finish. I've taken it to be framed and it will be part of my Christmas decorations this December

Well done on finding a design and stitching it from stash

Well, I can report 60 wedding invitations completed, so that's the back of the wedding stationery camel broken. The colour is teal, although it's showing up more as blue in the picture.

As there is more stationery to make, this challenge is not complete (it had better be by April though, lol).

These are beautiful

I am pleased to announce I have finally finished my first project - a pair of corset-back socks. : I think you can click on it to get a bigger image.



I will need to do a couple of smaller things if I want to achieve 15 this year!

I have never seen anything like these but I have led a sheltered life. However did you have the patience they are great:T

I'm a Corsetiere, so when I saw this pattern I knew I just had to make them! They took forever, but well worth it, and my followers on FB seem to love them too.

Well I did wonder with your picture and all. Perfect for you then. Hopefully you won't get any orders! What an awesome job.

Beautiful finishes everyone, I'm still working on knitted squares for a baby blanket, got about 7 left to do plus the knitted lace edging (need about 12feet of that!)
