A Long Overdue Post

Long time no post. I have a very active toddler and are pregnant with our second, leaving little time for anything for myself. I have been trying to squeeze some craft into my life. Mainly a bit of knitting and some crochet. I am desperate to complete some sewing, especially as I brought a new sewing machine in August (and it's still in the box, ahem).

Last year I failed my self imposed challenge of completing a UFO per month. My mum did a fantastic job with her UFO's. She finished quilts, unlike me who tried to claim changing buttons as completing a UFO.

I did finish a few small projects last year and continued with a few longer term ones. Bellow is a wrap up of all the photos I planned to post but never got around to in 2011.

Wool from the Bendigo woolen mills
My purchases from the Bendigo sheep and wool show
Purchases from the craft fair
Now not so new craft books
Beanie for my friends daughter
Jumper for my little man (too small for him when I finished it, from now on I will complete a tension square)
Crochet squares for a baby blanket, it's a slow process
Wedding keepsake for my brother and his wife

And that folks is a wrap for 2013! I hope to be a bit more productive in 2014.
