Theme-a-licious is hosted by Heather of It's Geek to Me
Each month Heather thinks up a theme for us to stitch to, or in my case, a theme to somehow shoe-horn my existing stitching into, no matter how tenuous the link! Here is my review of my year:
For my cousin's wedding
For my cousin's wedding (on the Wings of Love - geddit?)

Phew! One of my tasks for the New Year is to update my Happy Dance blog as I've gotten a little behind with that. I have actually completed 82 projects this year and if I can remember where I have put the little lead charm for Glorious Fall and attach it to the fabric tonight that will make 83! Three more than last year!
So finally (if anyone is still reading!)
Have a very Happy Old Year's Night
and a very
Peaceful New Year's Day
