Sewing goals and sew-along update

I decided to join Suzie in her "12 in 2012" sewing propositions! Having some precise goals will definitely help me to be more productive, although deadlines stress me very easily, so I hope I won't break down under pressure :)

Here are my propositions:

12 Pieces of Handmade Clothing:
1. Shirt dress
2. Blazer
3. Trousers
4. Gertie's Bombshell dress
5. Coat/ Jacket
6. Something for my "Scallop Fever" series
7. Ruby slip
8. Colette's Oolong
9. Victory Patterns' Hazel
10.Wildcard!
11. Wildcard!
12.Wildcard!

12 New Sewing Techniques and Skills:
1. Boning
2. Hong-Kong finished seams
3. Bound buttonholes
4. Bound neckline placket   
5. Waist Stay
6. Zipper guard
7. Sew from a vintage pattern
8. Draft a skirt sloper/block
9. Draft a bodice sloper/block
10. Knit a garment
11. Refashion an unused garment
12. Draft the pattern for an accessory

Bonus:
♥ Host a sew-along on the blog
♥ Release a free pattern

I'd say I'll have my hands full for 2012!

And as announced in the title of this post, I have news about the sew-along. Unfortunately, it's bad news. I know I had given it for certain, but January and February are going to be VERY busy months for me and I need to prioritise. This means I'll have to focus on university stuff and I really don't want to take a commitment I might not be able to fulfill.

Again, I'm very sorry. But, as written above, there's going to be a sew-along sooner or later this year, (we'll decide whether to use the same pattern). I hope this is enough to be forgiven :)

And what about you? What are your sewing goals for this year?
