Evaluation

Well the year is about over and I wanted to look back on all of the projects I got done.  The list I had at the beginning of the year changed but, nevertheless, I got a lot done and am kinda amazed at all of the things that I FINISHED! I feel really good about the things that I accomplished this year.  Here is an overview of everything I did:
 Drapes and Dolls
                                     Table with Chairs                              Quilt #1
                                     Nursing Cover                                      Crib

 Quilt #2

 Veil

I also made another nursing cover and a sling for my sister.....I tried to get her to take a picture of them for me but she never would so.... sorry for the two missing pictures.  I feel really good about how the year ended.  I accomplished all of these projects, had a baby and moved across the country.  I would say that was a good year of getting things finished! I have become a lot better at finishing what I start or not starting a project I know I won't finish. I am thinking about ideas for the new year and will let you know when I figure it out what the "new years resolutions" will be:)

Veil


 Like I said in my last post, my sister got married this summer and when we went dress shopping I couldn't believe how much veils are.  I looked at it and thought, "I think I can make one of these."  I told her not to buy one and that I would make one for her.  After more wedding planning, I started to get nervous because my sister is a perfectionist and if its not perfect (especially for her BIG DAY) than it will not do.  But it was actually one of the simplest things I have ever made. I spent $10 on materials, which actually was enough to make two, and it only took me about an hour to make.
