The Final Hours of 2012

Well, 2011 is drawing to a close and a lot has happened this year.  I have a new grandson and a great granddaughter. Spent a month in Alaska.  Neglected my garden and let it go to ruin hope to do better next year.

 My father is doing well and we are looking forward to a new year with him.

I learned how to use my new embroidery machine and made several gifts for Christmas.  Have several new designs picked out for shirts and bags next year.

Taught a series of tatting classes and have another one lined up for the new year.

I am getting my list ready for the new year with my goals laid out for me.  I hope to knit 12 pair of socks this year most will be for gifts.  I am looking at making 12 hats and 12 pair of mittens. I also want to work on 12 tatting projects, just not sure what I will do with the tatting.  I want to write at least new 12 poems and work on my stories that I have neglected for way to long.  I plan to update this blog at least once a week and not leave it languishing for months at a time.   Won't be to difficult with the winter months but spring and summer are difficult.

I like your system of '12' for this year! I think that 12 bookmarks would be great for exchanges or posted birthday 'presents'. You could always donate your work to a local fete or school to sell as part of their fundraising. I look forward to seeing your '12' adventure over the coming year.
