2025 I embraced paper craft (using my Cricut).
I started an English Paper Pieces Huswif (still have that to finish).
I knit some socks – the plan of knitting a pair month didn’t pan out.
I fell in love with Dorset Buttons – I made 10 in the end.
I did some machine embroidery projects – I quite like embroidering on paper.
And I joined the Embroiderer’s Guild of W.A, which gave me an extra stitching session on a Monday afternoon (with a fabulous group of like-minded women). I have also joined the specialist canvaswork group, but I won’t start that until February.
I have re-discovered my love of Cross Stitch particularly on Aida and lower counts.
In 2026 I want to work with what I have.
Mt big project is going to be my Trinket Box
I also want to finish my Language of Love piece
Start the Denmark Dreaming piece.
Work on my monthly poems, knit socks, work on my Jane Austen Quilt, finish my huswif, finish my baby blanket and my goff mystery shawl.
I have also already booked into some courses at the Guild. So my plans are very ambitious, but so long as I am enjoying myself, it doesn’t matter what gets finished and what doesn’t.
