I have already started crafting and have made the decision to not add swap items because that would fill up my list too fast! But if my list goes over fifty I guess I should just make the projects tougher..

Ill never tell how much I just spent at joanne's....
but the guilt is killing me!!
lol.

.... I guess I will cheer myself up with some CRAFTING!!!

Im so glad I found you guys and the craftser site it just makes me smile.

Craftydeb, I can't wait to see that kaleidoscope quilt.

And, alwaysinmyroom, I agree this should be at least 50 projects.  I've seen a few lists already go over the top.

For mine, I just keep adding to my original list.  I'm wondering if I have enough energy to finish all of these lofty goals for myself.  Today I'm working on my rag rug.  Hoping to finish it today, or at least by tomorrow.  I'll post when I'm done.

[Yarn or Fabric]

hahaha - I am an over the top person I know!  I have many wishes to do things - and hopefully if I give myself a goal of 100 I'll actually finish 50 lol.

I still need to check to see if I have enough of that reindeer fabric to make you a tree skirt pinokeeo!

I'm adding "Halloween Costume" to my list as well. Right now I'm thinking Strawberry Shortcake.

I love Strawberry Shortcake.. well if you are talking about the original anyways not the teenager with the floppy hat.

I don't have as much time for crafting the things I want to craft at the moment.  

I'm making lots of stuff but am doing a degree in Ceramics so its all clay and other (fun) crafts have gone on the back burner.

I don't want to overwealm myself so I'm going to keep it realistic and not too ambitious this year. I will keep adding through out the year though, but for now..

Its getting embarassing I'm the only ceramics student who doesn't have an apron and I come home on the train covered in clay and plaster

OK, I'm in.  I've got a ton of stuff planned but haven't made an official list yet.  It'll be a few days before I get to it, but I will.  I suppose the list doesn't count as crafting, what if I doodle my heart out on it while I'm thinking?
