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…
Oh yes, I love the 50 projects! I think I barely made it in 2018, and couldn’t find enough pictures in time in 2019. 2020 will, of course, be totally different! At least posting pictures will be so much easier here!

I stopped doing the 50 things C-A-L when I felt like I was just spamming things over from the Nerd Games, but I’m totally going to spam! I don’t have a formal list (yet), I need to go through and list my WIPS, at least, the rest will be whatever. I do have a goal to make at least ONE project from each of the craft books I have that I haven’t used, yet!
