January 2017

A new year a new set of goals to achieve. 
I am hoping to finish at least 1 WIP a month that has been languishing. The poor pile of forgotten hopes, dreams, and wanted projects. 

 It is not that bad actually. Being that there are 8 of them hopefully they will all be done by August. Oh that Ashley she is too funny. Not 100% sure what order I will check them off in, but I am sure they will get done. 
The only one causing me grief is the giant Tardis blanket, because as much as I want it complete, and as much as I LOVE IT, I just need to look at it, think about it, and maybe back track a smidge.

 I am also trying to figure out a better way to images on the blog itself, as they tend to just do their own thing, and go where they want to go, and their placement is somewhat willy nilly. 

 As for books, well I hope my reading schlump does not continue, that would be a crying shame. Along to colouring, yes we have a new section this year. I want to see if I can colour one colouring book page a month as well. Something new to look forward to doing.

 The other question for 2017 is do I start a vlog/podcast type item? I suppose I could, and it would do me no harm, but is it worth it?

FO's:

  1. A Navy Be Loving Hat
    1. No picture, it is navy it is a hat, you get the idea

    2. Tardis Blanket (the giant one)
      • Smaller needles?

      • Follow the pattern more accurately, do not get impatient with the process, as it is a process!
