Possibilities . . .

Hello Friends,

Welcome to 2015 ~ a new year filled with endless possibilities

both in work and our personal lives.

We take stock of years gone by, treasure memories, see where

we may have done a little better and plan to improve.

None of us is perfect, we are human and flawed,

 but this doesn't mean we can't all

resolve to simply ~  Do Our Best.

On the business end:

I have plans . . . boy do I have plans, but just because I "have" plans doesn't

mean they will all happen! 

Last year I had a plan to re-do the studio. I made it about 75%, but never really

came up with the perfect layout before I had to get busy sewing again.

I'll try again this year!

I had plans to design new pieces . . .  a few happened, some didn't,

so back on the list it goes!

I ventured into teaching for the first time ~ what an amazing experience!

Yes ~ I'll do that again!

I made plans with a friend to run a Folk Art Show!

We were thrilled with the outcome ~ and yes we'll do it again!

I hoped to catch up on orders . . . well ~ that's a work in progress.

What new plans will be added to the un-finished list from last year?

* A new website! ~ Once I master the program :-)

* Improving my photography ~ Thank you to my tutor, Kasia!

* Teaching again  ~  Details to come soon.

* Pattern design for a magazine ~ check!

* The From Our Hands & Hearts show ~ November

*Creating some wool appliqué pieces ~ I love the bears and bunnies

but I'm feeling the need to add a little something different!

Of course as the days pass more "want to do's" will come to mind,

But this is a good place to begin ~ Wish me luck!

There are many items on the "personal" list as well.

More time with family and friends, more time in the garden, more long walks,

more sunshine ~ more striving to do my best!

May 2015 bring you only happiness and smiles!
