Somehow, it seems right to take a look back at some of my end of the year creativity before looking forward and setting new goals, new resolutions... Among the many December projects, here is a glimpse of a few:
my first attempts at "quilt journaling"....with yarn and wool
- for the wells of creativity that spout out randomly during nano
- for the recent election
making felt ornaments, mostly like those I saw in the store of pomegranetes or oranges, but here is one I designed of a snowman
my finished anemoi hat
and a free form wall-hanging (about 65% finished) inspired by small felt circles --a couple of which you can see, but most of which have yet to be embellished and attached
As for the new, my new year's resolutions are these:
1. Focus on the basics
2. Stop waiting for happiness. Happiness is right here. Right now. (this one is borrowed from Zen Habits blog. something I already now, but .... always good to be reminded.)
