a year in review: 2017 was a good year!

It is time to bid farewell to 2017 and review this year top posts.
For the house, it was the year of the bedrooms, as I made over Brick Master's room

and our master suite during the ORC.
Even after 6 weeks, it still feels like a fancy retreat!
Of course, I enjoyed sewing for my upcoming niece, making cute silly things like the butting, the bear, the beary pillow and a sweet quilt:

And there were also this new obsession with sew illustrated, a fun way to do applique and machine embroidery:

1-first basket, 2-pin cushions, 3-second basket, 4-pin cushions, 5-mug rug, 6-Liberty mug rug
And finally, on a personal note, it was our trip to Provence, which I had been dreaming about for many year.

It was a very good year for this little blog, and I hope 2018 is just as good. See you next year!
