Needlequest
December was miniature work which doesn't really float my boat so I sat this one out.
Something New for 2014
I think this is the first month that I didn't have anything to link up! Bad show Crafter's Apprentice, get apprenticing.
A Lovely Year of Finishes
The Mackintosh inspired wall hanging has been my ALYOF goal for months. And it finally got finished!
Craft Book Sew along
I did no reviews in the December, but I did make a beaded ornament from Spellbound Festive Beading.
Rainbow Scrap Challenge
The challenge finished for the year in November, I had hoped to finish my scrap buckets but it didn't happen.
Smalls SAL
I failed to join in with this too!
2014 FAL Q4
I managed to finish two whole items from my list of 9 in December, I amazed myself!
4. Mackintosh wall hanging, here's a photo of the pattern - see above
8. Applique cushion. I'm going to FMQ this and make it into a cushion.
So not a successful month for challenges, but it was December.
As for next year, I've decided to just stick with 2 challenges. I'll continue with the 2015 Finish Along as I like the quarterly check in time frame. I'm also going to continue with the Smalls SAL as I have so many smalls I want to stitch and it's nice to have a finish. I would join in the craft book challenge if any pops up as I always plan to craft from my books, so do let me know if you hear of any. Apart from that, I want to continue plodding along with all my crafts and learning lots of new techniques along the way.
Happy New Year to you all, I hope 2015 brings you everything you wish for.

A good year, I think, even if December wasn't quite as productive as you might have preferred.
Your appliqué cushion and your beaded ornament are both gorgeous! I love those little projects from Spellbound too and have made a couple of these ornament dangly covers in the past.
Happy New Year to you and yours! x
Eeek! Sorry - didn't mean to dis the wall hanging. That's beautiful too. :)
I shall look forward to seeing what you do in the coming year. Will you still be doing the monthly round ups?
I said in a previous blog how i love this wall hanging , your bauble is very pretty too. I plan to think about goals for this year today and make sure I do not set too many and overface myself as I am sure more will creep in during the year!
a gorgeous variety of crafting ^^
Happy New Year
