Good morning everyone and Happy New Year to you all!
Now that 2014 is behind us I thought it would be a good time to celebrate another year of crafting. It’s been a busy year for me and I have had several periods of sheer exhaustion this year. However, when I looked back over the crafty projects that I’d finished in 2014 I was quite surprised I’d managed to complete so many. Some are bigger and more challenging than others but they were all equally enjoyable to do. Some were done in tandem with my special blogging friend Claire who has motivated me to continue making and doing throughout the year.
2014 Marked the “hatching” of the Chicken Run on my other blog and the beginning of a larger SAL group. Many more personal goals have also been achieved. It’s been a bumper, busy year in so many respects for me but the crafting has kept me going. Sewing has forced me take a break, however small, from life’s challenges that can catch us off guard.
Thanks to all of you who have liked, commented, emailed and read my posts last year. It’s been so wonderful to have you on board!
Here are some photos of completed projects from 2014. If you want to read the original posts click here and then click on the photo of the project you want to read about.
Here’s to an amazingly crafty New Year for all of us!
