Do you remember 12 in 2012? I sure have forgotten about it!
Well, not really, but I have forgotten about some of my goals. Since almost two thirds of the year have gone, I decided to go back to check how I was doing and... it's BAD.
12 Pieces of Handmade Clothing:
1. Shirt dress → Planning to make one with Simplicity 2215 and surprise fabric
2. Blazer → I really don't know why I included this.
3. Trousers → Fingers crossed, I really want to make a pair.
4. Gertie's Bombshell dress → I don't know. I'm starting to think this dress is really not for me.
5. Coat/ Jacket → Planned! The pattern I want to use is in the mail.
6. Something for my

9. Victory Patterns' Hazel → I recently had THE best idea for this pattern!

I told you, it's bad.
I recently started to plan my sewing a bit more, but I'm afraid a year-long plan was a bit too much for me. I still have four more months to do as much as I can, but I'm almost sure I won't cross everything off list (especially the techniques, if I'm not going to make the Bombshell dress).
What about you? How are your plans going?
