That was the year that was...

Oh can you believe that it is the last day of the year?  What a year it has been!  12 months ago we were still in the old house, surrounded by packing cases ready to move, checking the 10 day weather forecast for snow... thankfully (?) it just rained!

Before I bombard you with image overload with all the things I have made this year, I want to say a huge thank you for the wonderful year that you have all helped make it for me.

Others have been patient enough to group their 2011 makes into quilts, blocks and other goodies; no such luck here, semi-chronological will have to do!


Some of you have been here for the whole year, and others have joined along the way, and you all make me smile with your constant encouragement, kind words, sarcasm and banter.

I can hand on heart say that I have made some brilliant friends in this blogging world and I am so looking forward to getting to meet many of you in June, if not, maybe sooner or later.

I wish you a fantastic 2012, surrounded by loving family, dear friends, good health, fun times and loads of beautiful fabric xxx

    Your parade of finishes is very impressive! It's kind of scary when you see it all together!! makes you wonder what we all did before the sewing bug got us!!!!

    Happy New Year,
    Helen
