I do this some years, go back and look through my posts for the year and pick out a few to share-well actually turns out to be allot of photos-smiles
This year I did more journal pages with Art Journal Journey's monthly themes. This form of creativity is out of my fiber art comfort zone but I have enjoyed the process. For me it was a nice way to create a small piece spontaneously and not overthink it.
This past year many of us loss a dear blogging friend Eileen-I will always remember her when I see "diamonds on the lake" and from a Christmas card we learned of the passing of a dear friend from years past before retirement.
January-this was one of my favorites
and back in January I was struggling with how to hand quilt-I ended up putting it away til now. I had made a wool quilt, this large one and two gift quilts-so I think I was quilted out at the time and needed to put it away.
