This year, I have decided to make a list of intended projects. I do not think that I will apply time periods to them. Just make the list and check it off. Here is the list:
1. Finish my son's quilt. It just needs binding applied.
2. New Christmas Tree Skirt - I have been saying this for years and have not accomplished it. This year is the year.
3. Four Christmas pillows - these will be machined embroidered. I have the fabric for one of the pillows. Need to locate trim for that pillow.
4. Slipcovers - one chair, one ottoman, one loveseat. I have 15 yards of fabric and one roll of cotton cording. I know this will not be enough fabric or cording to cover all of these items. I forgot to include the yardage for piping. I have been working on the patterns.
5. Fit the Willow Tank pattern. Add a couple of new tank tops for hot weather.
6. Re-fit the fabrics-store.com Linen Tank. This is probably my all time favorite tank. It is a free pattern but is extremely well drafted.
7. Fit the Love Notions T-shirt patterns. There are two and I want to try both.
8. Finish a warm weather vest for my husband. This was started in 2022 and I ran into an issue with the pattern. It is a familiar complaint that the patterns tell you to use a particular length zipper but that length does not work with the pattern. It is much easier to order the correct length zipper than to fix a zipper to the correct length. Poor drafting.
9. Finish an Alabama Chanin dress.
I suppose that is it for now. Projects can always be added. This list will keep me very busy if I choose to follow it.
In addition to the projects, I will re-organizing my sewing/craft room. I think I need to rotate some stuff out to my storage unit. Yeah, I know, I should not have a storage unit for my sewing stuff but I do. I do freely allow others to store stuff in it because it is not full by any means. I have too much stuff and can not seem to part with it.
Happy Stitching!
