Well done on making a start. I like a few different projects on the go as well - we must be crafting sisters:D:rotfl:
I thought I was the only person that did that. I can also have 2 or 3 books on the go at any time too.
Definitely crafting sistersZebras rock0 -

Well done craftingmad, you're steaming ahead!!
Today I have made a trauma blanket, so have used up some wool. I need to decorate it and sew the sides together, so I'll count it when I've done that.
However, I have decorated and sewn up another 4 that someone else knitted, but I used my bits and pieces to decorate them with, so my stash has gone down a fraction.
So my total is now 6/100Keep Calm and Carry On Kondoing

6 more makes for me so far today.
Now don't laugh but I have made 6 felt reindeer decorations. I know I'm a bit late but all the bits were lying on my desk as I meant to make them before Christmas (obviously) but I managed to bury all the supplies and have only just found them when I was having a quick 10 minute tidy
So I'm now up to 16/2020 -slow and steady but progress is still progress.
I'm also packaging up a couple of things to send back to Create and Craft today as I've decided I don't need them so that will clear a teeny weeney bit more space in my craft roomMortgage - £2338.07 paid off Feb 2023 BTL 1 £51,089.10 £35789.36 paid off July 2025 BTL 2 £81,504.52 BTL 3 £77,497.020
