It is a new year. Overall, I am happy with the amount of sewing that I did last year. I am not happy with the amount of purchasing that I did. Why is it so much easier to plan projects than execute the projects? I am definitely a planner.
In 2021, I created 23 number of projects (this includes muslins). I used 45 1/4 yards amount of the stash and purchased 20 yards of fabric. My total purchases for the year was 141 1/4 yards. My stash is in the continuous growth mode. I really need to get into a reduction mode. I have already planned many projects for this year. My goals for 2022 is the following:
1. Follow through with planned projects. This is projects planned in 2020 and in 2021.
2. Reduce stash.
3. Reduce fabric purchases and pattern purchases.
I do not think that I could make this list much smaller. Hopefully, I can follow through with this. Fabric is really a huge temptation for me. When I am not sewing, I usually am planning projects and purchasing fabric. I joined Julie's Picks at Fabric Mart Fabrics for the year of 2022. I am hoping that being able to touch the fabric will reduce my need to purchase more fabric. No doubt there will be plenty of temptation. I am hoping that I will be able to resist.
Are you making any goals for 2022?
Happy Stitching!
