I have not updated my list in a long time as I have not made single posts for what I’ve made. But I did just make two posts that combined items, so they have been added to my list. Way over 50 items if counting each on it’s own. My list

I love seeing everyone’s projects. They give me such inspiration and more ideas!

I have made more progress on my list than I thought when I start editing my original “50 things” post

I just updated my list with some swap items that have arrived at their destination.

Getting ready to move did, in fact derail my original plans for the year, but it has made me very motivated to knock out some WIPs so I don’t lose pieces in transit:

1. Brown Latch Hook Rug
   

   

2. Redwood Tote
   

   

[jemimah (Kirsten)]

They came to meee!! I love them!

The rug and bag are fabulous @fishstix43!

There’s such a lot of inspiring projects in this thread

I just made a new mask for each of my boys. We are in the middle of an omicron wave so kids over 8 have to wear masks now.

Y’all, it’s been a slow crafty year for me. Or at least it has felt that way. Maybe because much of my creative time and energy is going into dealing with the barely surmountable task of sorting through our outbuilding/storage/workshop. ANYWAY, I as able to get to 17 so far this year! Much more than I thought. Not all of them are going to be their own topics, but I am counting them anyway. YEY ME!

[jemimah (Kirsten)]

Yeah, go you!! I haven’t felt like I’ve created much yet this year, but I’m still adding a few things to my list. It does seem to help to keep a record, otherwise I forget everything.

On the other hand, my list of projects I want to do, is infinite …

Exactly! The blessing/curse of the creative mind, I suppose. It’s kind of like getting a new mobile phone. Both of ours are going to fail soon, they’re years old, but I probably never run out of things I would rather spend several hundred to $1000 on.

YES! we jusut de-googled our phones and that was a pricey endeavor.

Meee toooo!!! I think that counts as twenty-ish. I’m feeling slow but still chugging along.

Today I made a wrist pin cushion and 2 more that wrap around the sewing machine and also a pillow case for one of the kids. But I can’t show youuuuuu. Cute kitty fabric and everything.

[Animegirlie (Malinda - burner of pizza)]

I made a tote bag from a Liberty of London shirt i cant wear anymore.

I made two more things today, I’m in one of those super crafty phases & I love it! It’s about half UFOs too so a good mix of ols & new, lots of stash busting but I also went shopping for new fabric.
