We're off very soon for the Christmas holidays so I won't be blogging again until next year. Don't know how I'm going to cope being computer-less but I'm taking my crochet with me and some embroidery things, as well as essential reading material! So, a big MERRY CHRISTMAS to everyone!
Thank you so much for a wonderful first year of blogging - I've enjoyed it so much and just loved all the new people I've 'met' through this incredible thing. This set me thinking about what I'd achieved this year... I started blogging in April and looking over my posts it feels like so much has been made and lots of creative play has been had... I'm not sure most of this would have happened without the blog to drive me. So, taking stock of my blogging year, the inventory includes....
... loads of brooches...
... learning how to crochet...
... some drawing and painting...
... cutting out stencils and screenprinting...
... more sewing than I'd realised...
... paper stitching...
... felt printing...
... embroidering...
... exploring collage...
... making bags...
... and, lastly, making my very first doll.
What a year! Thanks so much to everyone for being so supportive and so very inspiring! See you next year and best wishes for a wonderful holiday season :)

Here's to many more creations in 2010. Cheers!
