tielan: a vivid quilt in a rainbow of colours (quilting)

So, 2011 and my sewing efforts.

I had in mind the goal of making 12 quilt tops in 2012, and I succeeded!

In addition to the 12 quilt tops, I did costuming, made cushion-covers, and began sewing bags for gifts. The 'Victorian Steampunk dress' is still to be completed - I haven't put the sleeves on the coat just yet because I was looking for cuff lace (and finally found some). I also think I'd kind of like to do some hand-embroidery along the collar and the pocket flaps, but that's for 2012, I think!

Now I just have to find somewhere to wear it!

2012

In 2012, I'd like to:
- make another 12 quilt tops,
- sell at least three,
- make at least one quilt from go to whoa - top, basting, quilting, binding and all!

I still have quilting projects in the works from 2011:
a) Half-Square Harvest
harvest hst quilt: layout 3

b) Charmed Prints

c) Quilt Blogger's Uber-fest
quilt uberfest: blocks 2

And amidst all this, I hope to get a regular job, and actually finish one of my many unfinished original stories!

I may not be getting much sleep in 2012.
