I always look back on the year and marvel at the sheer number of things I’ve made. At the time, I never feel as though I am doing much but 12 months is a long time. And those projects add up. And boy does life add up!
In the past year we
• purchased a new home and completely redid it…from top to bottom and everything in between
• lived life with a 2 year old girl who’s just turned 3! She’s feisty, bright and loves anything that sparkles.
• celebrated my 10th wedding anniversary! Go us!
Oh and I made a few things and had a few things published. And did this little thing called the Moda Sliced Competition.
Here’s some of my favorite things I’ve made from 2012. By no means an exhaustive list, but a smattering of the ways I’ve made my world a more beautiful place.
I was tickled to find out from Moda Bakeshop that my backpack (the center photo up there) was one of their top ten viewed projects of 2012.
2012 has been filled with great quilty friends and exciting opportunities. But more than anything, it has been filled with a love for creating one item at a time to help make the world a more beautiful place. That’s our family mission. To live our lives in such a way that the talents we have will always create beauty for others. Lofty aspirations maybe, but something definitely worth striving for.
May 2013 be filled with even more.
Great year end review! 🙂 I can't wait to see all the lovley things you come up with next year! 🙂
That is something we should all aspire too – a great thought for the new year. A1l the best for 2013!

Happy New Year, Angela. You did well and I'm certain 2013 will be lovely for you. Most important thing – enjoy that girlie! My youngest is about to turn 6 and I am SHOCKED by how grown up everyone got so fast.
Creating beauty one item at a time. Love that. Thankful for you and your beautiful blogspace!
