I like the concept of nominating 9 projects for the year so I've made a #2018makenine. I've already posted it on Instagram but I thought I'd recap here and capture a couple of other goals too.
Let's start with the other goals. Like so many others my stash is overflowing and I'm feeling a little overwhelmed by it. As I was scrolling Instagram over Christmas I found
Katrina's stash diet and decided to join in. I have fabric piled high on an armchair in my sewing room and I won't be buying any other fabric until it's cleared (my cupboards are also overflowing but I'm trying to be realistic and set small, achievable goals).
This year I'm also saving for a coverstitch machine. I've wanted one for a long time, Wade even told me to just go out and buy one, but I want to save for it and get the satisfaction of doing this on my own.
Finally, here's 9 projects that I really want to make this year.
True Bias Lodo dress - I already have the pattern and the fabric.
True Bias Lander Pants I have the pattern and need to dig through my stash to see if I can find the right fabric.
Swim Style Chic Bandeau Bikini - Pattern purchased, fabric in the stash, just need the findings.
Grainline Studio Cascade Duffle Coat I have the pattern, fabric and toggles.
Grainline Studio Archer Shirt I have the pattern and some beautiful linen and I hope to make a start this week.
Orange Lingerie Esplanade Bra Need to buy everything for this one - will be later in the year I think.
Cloth Habit Harriet bra I have the pattern and I have the fabric and findings.
Style Arc Ziggi Jacket (in leather) I have the pattern.
It's a bit of a challenge and I'm keen to get started. It will be interesting to see if the plan changes as the year progresses. Do you have sewing plans and goals for 2018?
