Sewing Resolutions
Well, it is time to look back at my goals from last year and see how I did. These were my goals - lets see how I did:
* 1. Make things that I love - I think I did make more things that I love. Some of my favorites are the gold blouse from BWOF:
The Loes Hinse Oxford pants. I’m wearing these all the time now, so I need to make a few more pair!
The NewLook 6802 dress. This dress is very flattering and I love wearing it.
* 2. Pants!
I made 7 pairs of pants this year, but only 3 of them are favorites. The LH Oxford pants are real favorites, and I also really like the Simplicity Amazing fit pants.
* 3. The great white shirt
The gold blouse that I made from BWOF will make the perfect long sleeved white shirt. 
I did, however, make 4 white shirts - all of which I do like and wear.
* 4. More out than in (fabric)
Well, I have no idea. Somehow I lost the book I was keeping track in, but I probably did not hit this goal.
* 5. BWOF - 7+
Wow! I barely made this goal. I made exactly 7 BWOFs this year.
* 6. make & use TNTs
Not only have I found some new TNTs this year, but 10 of the things I made this year were from patterns I had used at least once before.
* 7. Make a vintage pattern - I did not meet this goal, although I did make an apron from a “retro” pattern. I hope I can get to some of those vintage patterns this year!
All in all, I think I did pretty well on my goals last year. In total, I made 37 things this year: 9 pants/shorts; 15 tops, 4 skirts, 3 dresses, 2 jacket/toppers, 1 vest, 3 accessories/lingerie.

I agree. I think you did pretty well on your goals. I still love the gold blouse!
You did great in 2009. Lovely pieces you've made. I'm looking forward to your 2010-creations.
You did very well, and you have a nice wardrobe to show for it. It's good to have goals, but it's even better to enjoy the process :))
Happy New Year, Nancy and Andy! So happy your trip ended up a success.
You made same beautiful things this year. Goals accomplished.
Happy New Year!
I think you had a great year! Onward to 2010 and a whole new adventure...
You did a great job in 2009! There are lots of cute things you've made. Good luck in 2010!
I love the longer McCall's white shirt. It must be wonderful to wear in the summer.
I think my favorite piece is the floral shirt. Such great fabric.
Well done on a very successful year! I would be very happy to own some of those items you made...
Excellent recap! I do need to set some goals for 2010...
I'm looking forward to your 2010-creations.
