I didn’t do much in the way of crafting last year but I did move and have all the fun that goes with that.
Glad to see this craftalong back for another year. I have 2 things on my list, 1 has been a WIP / UFO for over 6 years, so I need to make some progress with that!
Finish quilt (try and find the pattern for block sizes!)

I’d like to try this - I’m sure that I can improve on my personal best which was 5 projects posted in 2014
January goals:
(1) A month’s worth of folding from my origami calendar.
(2) Gift tags made from last year’s Christmas cards.
(3) A covering of some kind for our bathroom window.
(4) A washbag upcycled from my tatty old dressing gown.
I have got my crafty mojo back with a few crafted Christmas presents, so I will post a list and hopefully make some better progress than the last few years!

Still feeling the place out, but I think this thread is one of the best places I can start getting back into the groove. My parents moved to IN from FL back in July 2019 and lived with DH and myself until mid-September before construction was complete on the house they bought, totally derailed the little bit of crafty mojo I was building back up from a several year hiatus…blargh…
I’m back and I’m bad…but in a good way!
Here’s a little bitty list to start, more to come as I think of it, and hopefully items will be crossed off sooner rather than later.
Crystal Light Wallet (like a tea wallet, but with slots for those single-serve drink packet thingies…I get tired of plain ol’ water when I’m running errands all day)
Apron top for me
Lounge pants for me
Lounge pants for DH
Button or Teesha Moore stocking for me

Finish 8x10" cross stitch I started in 2019 and mat/frame it

I had “make something for myself” on my 2019 goals and only managed to do it at the very end of the year. I make things for other people, but so rarely myself! So most of mine have been on my private list for years… we’ll see how posting publically goes.

I was thinking the same thing. Maybe your list could just have an item that is the ATCs per month with a number after it and maybe a little pic collage?

Do you know how we can do those tiny pictures? Thumbnails? I wanted to post in my list but a huge picture came up…not cool since I already posted in a separate thread…
