Before the New Year rolls around, I wanted to take a look
back at my creative accomplishments for 2013.
There were lots of dresses, which is not very surprising!
Last year I had the Sew Weekly challenges to keep me on
track, so my pace was more laid back this year (which is a good thing!). Turns out, however, that the numbers are very
similar. I made/re-worked a total of 39
items this year, which is hard to believe!
Accessories are always fun. I discovered that I really enjoy working with beads on fabric.
Being involved with Britex as a Guest Blogger is an incredible honor, and I look forward to playing with more gorgeous fabric in the coming year. If I had to choose, these garments are probably my favorites.
I also altered a wedding dress. And I managed to complete six sweaters (I am including my Cabled Cardi that has not yet been worn - the last button was stitched on just hours ago).
That means half of my makes were separates! I have found that separates are, by far, the most worn items in my closet, and am very pleased to look back and see that their number is increasing.
All in all, it was a successful year on the creative front, and am looking forward to the next!
Oh my goodness what a productive year you've had and what beautiful makes! I look forward to following along on your adventures for 2014!
