Crafty 2012 in review

Posted by on January 3, 2013

Yesterday I summed up life in 2012. Today I thought I’d look back at my sewing and knitting progress in 2012.

First up: knitting!

I made my first pair of socks (thanks Granny)

First socks finished

And my second.

Kwalla socks finished

A shawl

Budding Apple

Or three

Squall

Ball shawl, blocking

A throw (though it’s STILL waiting for me to block it)

Hourglass

Some lace. One of which I can’t show you yet.

Spring centre

And two cardis that are just waiting for me to finish the sleeves (no recent pics of these).

In sewing, I started learning to make clothes using a sewing machine (It’s progressed beyound here but I haven’t hemmed it yet)

Skirt in progress

And continued piecing quilts by hand. I didn’t do much on my farmer’s wife sampler, but I managed to bring the total of blocks up over 30.

Easter addition

Next five blocks

Instead I focused on finishing moonglow. Well, at least the piecing.

Moonglow top

Oh, and I made a cushion for Macros

What's this?

Hmm. That really was a lot. Especially for me. Can’t wait to see what I can accomplish this year

    You sure were busy! Difficult to pick a favorite, they’re all so beautiful. I hope to get more quilting in this year, but there are only so many hours in the day. I can’t wait to see what you finish this year!
