Looking Back at 2014

Jan from One Stitch At A Thyme mentioned that I haven't posted before and after pics for this year's projects. I will endeavor to correct that right now.


I've never had so many finishes in one year. I counted 10 finishes and I still have 5 WIPs. This year was a year of firsts for me.

I finished my first BAP, Peacock Tapestry.

I participated in my first SAL, the Smalls SAL, and found out I'm not cut out for those small projects. I also stitched my first Hardanger piece, which I really enjoyed. I will definitely be doing more Hardanger this year.


I started and finished Spirit of the Southwest.


I managed to finish two out of five Creative Festival courses.


But the thing I'm excited about is that I managed to finish my oldest WIP, Flower Patch.

Unfortunately I can't say the same about Bramble in the Rose. I haven't touched it since last year. I still have a few days before end of the year, so I might put in some stitches in it yet.

That's it for this year in review. I've already organized the kits for next year's projects, I just have to find time to take pictures of them. Lighting is really bad these days.
