End of year wrap up!

So yes I haven't posted for a month now have I? Been entirely too busy up until the 19th of december. Been on holidays for a week now and very relaxed, it is brilliant to have a break. I'm a bit restless though, I'm missing my projects, my only creative outlet here is the knitting projects I brought with me. When we get back to dunners I'm sure I'll have extra incentive to craft and garden and play music again :D

So, goals for next year -

Crafting:

  • Hand knit a vest
  • Learn how to use knitting machine - socks in the round, fair isle, jumpers etc.
  • Make another quilt big enough for our bed
  • Sell more of my creations, go to more markets, find something that sells
  • Learn how to use the inkle loom
  • Try new recipes

Other:

  • Perform with the choir playing accordion
  • Get a bike and use it to get around
  • Try busking with the accordion
  • Costumes! Make some more costumes for local theatre :)
  • Get P's so I can drive!
  • More gardening and preserving, brewing etc.
Also we are going to get into the homebrewing next year, and excitingly, osk got a mushroom growing kit for xmas, so we'll do that too!

 Got a few sewing projects I'm already planning in my head - like the doctor who coat.
 From the 6th doctor, woollen with all different panels of fabrics.

 Got the perfect fabric for this one :)

Looking forward to settling in our new house and setting up a crafting room for myself, what a treat after using the edges of our bedroom for a year!
It's going to be another interesting year!
