Bust out your party shoes, get the music pumping, I’ve got something to celebrate.
My first finish of 2008! PARTY!
I started this on 18th October 2007 and have finished the calendar itself today the 8th of June 2008 – 8 months, that is the same amount of time I was pregnant with Annie.
Still have the little plastic canvas hangers to go and the beads on the calendar that the hangers hook onto (link to amazon.com picture of finished calendar with hangers). But I’m calling this a finish
Griding the fabric first was a great idea and I will do it again for sure. Really helped me to keep track of where I was and I don’t actually remember doing any frogging! So that is good – especially as the calendar did have long periods of time where I had to put it away and usually that is when I make mistakes, coming back after a break and messing up where I had left off.
Wooo! So excited.
Now I can get started on that plastic canvas work :yuk:
