Christmas is 4 Thursday's away... I keep staring at that statement. There is no way I'm going to make all the things, for all the people I had hoped to. And I am ok with it. I've made my peace. 'Tis the season for giving...and for Peace right? : )
Anyhoos, instead I am thinking about and very loosely planning the things I hope to make next year (I know, don't freak out!). So, here's what's on the cards:
- A scrap vomit quilt for a friend. I re-sorted my stash and lo and behold I have enough scraps to actually separate them by colour. So this project is the one that is going to gobble them up.
- An angelic wall hanging for another friend. It was supposed to be for Christmas but... I think it would be simple and delightful and just sweet especially in super colours and fabric (pattern from an old edition of Homespun magazine).
- Fox River Quilt - I have my eye on a few of the quilts in John Adams' book Beyond Neutral. Next in line is this beauty.
- Also some crochet. I really want to nail down the pattern for these Zebra slippers I made up for one of my girls last year.
So what about you crafty cookies? What plans, schemes, hopes and dreams are in your creative future?
And dont forget to link up and away any goodies you'd like to share!
Thanks a bunch for stopping in.

I love the zebra slippers. You should write them up, as I am sure they will be a big hit.
ReplyDeleteI have just looked back at my crafty resolutions for 2014, and realised that I went a bit off plan.
Those slippers are cracking me up - they're just gorgeous! I don't even want to talk about what I planned to get done this year, there is a list on my blog that is only half done. I took an inadvertent 8 month craft sabbatical this year but I'm not sure that's an excuse or not... ;)
ReplyDeleteYou are to be commended for all that you have accomplished this year - and planning for next year already sounds very organized. I love those cute slippers too - can't believe they were made last year. I've got no plans beyond trying to be more disciplined in certain areas of my life, and completing a crochet blanket that I started earlier this year but I've lost the motivation to finish for some reason.
