the end

my challenge 
for the year
is complete
and 100 things were made!



it was a project I really enjoyed
and it definitely spurred me on
to be more creative.
I renewed my love
of some crafts I used to do
such as stained glass,
and improved my skill at others.


its difficult to choose
a favourite so here,
in no particular order
are my top five makes.

if you had a favourite
please let me know
in the comments.




#thirtythree  A knitted fern shawl from a pattern by Tiny Owl Knits tinyowlknits.wordpress.com:



#seventythree  linocut printing:




the only downside was
I found at times
especially during the summer
that I frantically made things for the sake of it
just to keep the numbers up,
and I didn't manage to
try as many new crafts as I hoped.


I did actually make over 100 things
but I didn't list them all
as some were duplicates
and there were some other
drawings and pieces of writing
that I didn't want to share.
it has been a great accomplishment
and I am so glad I did it




I hope you have enjoyed
seeing all of my makes




I won't be posting
on this blog again,
but I am starting a new one,

meanwhile back at the ranch....
