At the begining of last year, I made goals and I tried to stick to them as much as possible:
I'm especially excited about the Stitch from Stash. I'm thinking if I am VERY good, I will use the money that I don't spend on finally getting a Chatelaine kit. Every year, I lurk around http://europeanxs.com/ looking at the different kits and dither about whether I should buy or not. But the cost is so high, that I'd really have to be sure I will be able to finish stitching whatever pattern I pick.
Papillon Creations - Flower Patch - currentTereza Wentzler - Peacock Tapestry - current- Ink Circles - Bramble and the Rose - current
Susan Portra - Spirit of the Southwest- Heaven and Earth Designs - Stolen in Her Sleep (Selina Fenech)
- Kangaroo Amigurumi
- Smalls SAL - quit after 3 months
- Mamen's Tapete caramelos (my first Hardanger) - started and finished
- Took 5 Creative Festival classes, finished 2/5
All in all, I did pretty good in 2014 and I'm hoping that 2015 will be another great year. Here's what I'm planning to work on.
- MrsMilkybarKid's mirabilia SAL (start January 1st 2015). I will be stitching Tree of Hope
- instagram: #crossstitch, #flosstube, #ytmirasal2015

- Teresa Wentzler's Tracery Dragon (Sceal Teach is holding a TW SAL that I might join)
- Donna's Fantasy Lace

I also want to work on finishing up the other Creative Festival classes I took, since I'm planning on taking more in 2015. I don't want to end up with too many class WIPs.
Update 2015/01/05: I won't be participating in Stitch from Stash 2015-A. It seems that in my eagerness to participate I forgot to actually sign up. I confused it with WIPocalypse, for which I did sign up. I'm going to still keep track of my purchases (I really want that Chatelaine kit) and will try to sign up for the second part of it.

Wonderful projects :) I will enjoy watching your progress on the Mira since I'm doing the SAL too.
ReplyDeleteOh Dima, I just love it when you show all your starts for the year all neatly stacked with threads on top of fabric and chart. It gets my stitching mojo all re-charged. ;-) Wow so many finishes in 2014... I'm so jealous. ;-p Glad you'll be joining wipocalypse this year and filling up your TUSAL jar again too!!!
ReplyDeleteI love taking pictures of Floss tosses. I started doing them after seeing some Chatelaine floss tosses. And you're right they do get your stitching mojo excited. I wish more stitchers would do them.
DeleteWonderful goals for the year. I'll look forward to seeing your projects progress.
