When I went back to check when I had posted my first blogiversary post on Monday, I realized that it was in fact on 3/2, but that I hadn’t posted my first post until 3/4. So this year I’m honoring that.
Another year, another set of changes.
In the past year I’ve:
Almost made jeans! (And I’m hoping to try out Ginger Jeans this year)
Graduated college! (And also made my graduation dress! My mom and grandmom may have teared up a bit with that… But it could also have been the graduating)
Participated in Me Made May!
Moved south for graduate school! (Which is also where I started taking a few pictures outside)
And I’ve actually started graduate school, for the record. Passed all my first semester classes too!
Knitted my first socks! (and second and third)
Started up my Foodie Friday posts, and kept it going successfully for a while. And don’t worry, it shall continue!
Made a purse that I use everywhere. It’s my tutoring purse (always at the ready with Sharpies), my ballroom dance purse (surprisingly my dance shoes fit in too), and my day-trip purse, for those all day shopping trips that require fifteen billion reusable bags. They all fit too. Not all of these at once, of course, but it’s still fantastic.
Sculpted Groot. Nuff said.
Used special yarn and fabric. First fabric my friend brought me from Uganda…
… and then (very) recently Christmas yarn from a few years ago!
Made Susan’s quiver. Biggest leather project to date!
Participated in my first Monthly Stitch challenges: Let Them Sew Cake and Geek Out!
I keep meaning to get into a few more, but I tend to miss them by a couple of days. Meaning, I start the project a few days too late.
So that’s what I’ve been up to.
Here’s to another great year!
