Not having a good few days (to give an idea in the last 6 days, two of which were 'weekend' and so technically days off, I've worked 2.5 days overtime for work). Last night I managed to sew one length of wool on the tapestry I'm working on and that was the first time since I last posted that I had made any progress at all but one length and I was too tired to continue (or to comment here!).

In terms of what I'm most proud of from last year, I did no crafting in the latter portion of the year, I can't remember exactly when I stopped, but I was trying to remember anything that I'd done that had gone well and I remembered doing some painting kits. I liked how relaxing they were, but also they were good kits and so the end results of most were pretty decent looking - I completed four paintings over a couple of months (I'm not sure now if the first was finished in 2022 or if I only did the first disaster one then, but the four completed successfully were an owl/bookshelf, a painting of Lady and the Tramp, one of Mickey and Minnie Mouse and one of Stitch from the movie Lilo & Stitch. For a 'non-artist' like me, I felt successful - I have some more to do and think that once I've made a bit more progress on some of the other outstanding and projects that are currently taking up lots of space, I might return to them to have another stint of painting.
