a year in review

It is the time of the year for review, "a best of",

it does sound a little intense,

so I will keep it short, just the 5 projects the most seen.

1) the advent calendar of my 12 days of mittens,

I must say I am really pleased about that one,

as it was all made/thought by me!

2) the doll bed, and the take-over by Bear

I have seen quite a few of these beds in blogland,

very popular tutorial from Anna!

3) the sewing machine cover with appliqued circles

Again I totally followed a tutorial

but the use was a little original,

even if my mom thinks it is too pretty to cover her machine!

4) Miss C.'s musketeer costume

I did not make up that one either,

just sewed it! At least Miss C. loved it!

The doll version turned out quite nice too!

5) the linen-Liberty of London basket

A basket made of my new love combination: 

linen and Liberty of London fabric, and solid,

a little unexpected for me, but the solids totally balance

all the flowers from the Liberty!

This year has been a great sewing/crafting adventure,
complete with a move to the DC area.
Now that we are settled in our new house,
it is time to do some more work to it,
kitchen I am calling your name!
Of course I will keep sewing,
I even hope I can sew for myself,
it will be quite a challenge!
I am ready for the New Year.....

Happy sewing!
