I have been following the Sew Weekly website off and on for a little over a year now. It's so interesting to see how the different contributors take to the theme and create something so unique every single week. I dreamt I would someday have the motivation to participate in a project of this scale. I have so many projects I want to make. So much fabric. So many patterns. Sometimes, however, I just don't have the motivation. I'm putting this out in the blog world for a little accountability. I came up with a plan to just have a FO bi-weekly. I came up with a list Sew Weekly style and I really hope I can make it through the end of the year. Without further ado, here's my list:

Dec 30 - Holiday Dress (Glitter, Cocktail Party, etc)
As you can plainly see, I'm already a few days behind. I'm working on a red skirt right now. My hand-stitching skills leave something to be desired. It's a painstakingly slow process for me and I have to hand-stitch the hem and the waistband facing. I put in my planner to have this done by saturday. We'll see! I have some WIP weeks in here as well because I do have several of those. I still need to finish up my gorgeous turqouise silk dress and my blue-green parfait. Those two projects are really what the WIP weeks were made for!
Let me know if you are up for the challenge as well! I would love to have the company (read: accountability partners). Just leave me a comment right down there! I will also accept your comments of "Elle, this is crazy-making, but I wish you luck this year!"
