Thank you to all of you lovely readers, commenters, Sydney sewists and fellow online sewcialists for all the inspiration and encouragement you've provided me with this year. I hope 2014 is a happy, healthy and fulfiling year for you all.
Here's a little gif from photos I took of the early fireworks (9pm edition) last night in Sydney, viewed from a large rock in the bush (!) on one of the harbour headlands. I hope it works - I've never tried this before!
Onto the new year's resolutions. I have three resolutions relating to sewing and blogging - well, not so much resolutions as reminders - for the year:
1. It's a blog, not a popularity contest
This blog is just for fun. I don't have to try to be more amusing or knowledgeable or pretty or prolific. Abslutely no pressure.
2. Dance to the beat of your own drum
I don't have to join in with the sew-alongs, I don't have to try all the indies. It's OK to like Vogue patterns too (it's true, I do).
3. Be nice
Do unto others etc etc. That includes taking time to reply to comments, and to write comments on all of my the blog posts I've 'liked' in bloglovin'.
And that's it!
See you soon
