Happy New Year ...

I was quite looking forward to seeing the back of 2010 for a number of reasons.


It has been a difficult year in lots of ways.
Looking back at what I have achieved I have actually accomplished a lot this year and should maybe allow myself to have a little pride in all the ways in which I've grown and developed not only personally but within my little business.


I've met some wonderful ladies through my teaching and quilt group, I,ve taken lots of business this year and even won a small comepetition.
It's not all bad. In 2011 I promise to be a better pattern writer and actually get some of my ideas and creations onto paper.


Photo's are as follows from left - right;

It's certainly a been a busy year. Just this week I have finished making two Christmas Stockings, a new coat for Henri and I'm nearly finished making the project I have designed for my next course.


Happy New Year everyone.
