Re: Stitching New Year Resolutions or Wishlist.
I joined CJC 2015 and will be working on 30 projects throughout the year. I'm going to concentrate on 10 specific ones until completed, so I'm going to join the Turtle Trot SAL as well. The theme is dog related projects because I still miss our basset that died 8 months ago.
I used Richard's program to turn a photo my DH took of Otto and it's going to be a BAP, 500K+ stitches, but that's okay. I'm going to tent stitch so there's a chance I might finish it in the next 5 years.
In the meantime I have a lot of smaller projects, well, relatively smaller that I'll work on as well. The full list is on my blog on one of the pages.
Good luck everyone!

I know what it means. I have a basset hound and he is my life.

Re: Stitching New Year Resolutions or Wishlist.
Hmmm.... I don't really have a plan, but some things I would love to finish:
1. Plum Pudding for the SAL I'm hosting. It would be terrible if the host didn't finish it!!!
2. Tiramisu - because it's already started! (2/6 completed)
3. Black Halloween Cat - I'm SO close - 3/4s finished
4. Vermillion - Halloween snowman for my MIL - half finished
5. Halloween Town by the Frosted Pumpkins - I redesigned the part I didn't like, so I'm half way there!
That's it for actual goals. If I don't finish both Glendon Places' thats fine and if I don't finsh the Halloween Snowman that's also okay, but everything else would be great!

Re: Stitching New Year Resolutions or Wishlist.
My only resolutions this year is to try new things, new fabric, threads, stitches and designers. I'm really looking forward to it! You guys are all great for helping me discover new things to try when I see what you've been working on, love it!

Re: Stitching New Year Resolutions or Wishlist.
This year the plan is:
1. Finish the bread cloth I have started for eldest daughter.
2. Complete one for younger daughter
3. Two baby bibs
4. One sampler
Hopefully this isn't too ambitious for someone returning to the hobby!

Re: Stitching New Year Resolutions or Wishlist.
That sounds like a pretty good plan and totally do-able (unless you get sidetracked by other pieces like I do). And if you need encouragement to meet your goals, we're always here to cheer you on.lcamp wrote:This year the plan is:
