A Year of Projects - Week 1 (The List)


Even though every year I change it, I am going to stick to largely the same format as previous years. However, I have been following the wardrobe architect series with Colette sewing patterns.  As a result I am going to try to keep to shapes, colours and textures from images that I have set up on Pinterest.
Very much like boxy: Love all of these shapes apart from the miniskirt:

Garments - Knitted
Zinone - Andi Sutterlund
Buchanan - from Yokes
Christmas Jumper
Epistrophy - also from Yokes
From Way Back - Hanna M
Miranda
Breathing Space from Interpretations 3

Hats for the boys - with the John Arbon Knitting by numbers
Washcloths to go with the soap x  9

Shirt dress, cardie & flat pumps by sewlittletime on Polyvore featuring polyvore, mode, style, Myrtlewood, ASOS, fashion and clothing:
Garments - Sewing
Trousers
Tunic tops
Coco dress and top - Tilly and the Buttons
Knickers
Shirt dress as in the picture
Mimi blouse - Tilly and the Buttons

My perfect pallet: Palette - these are the colours I am really drawn to.

So, there we go - there is the new list.  Next week I will be able to update on the projects I have made progress on in the last 2 weeks.  Now to see all the rest!

  4. Oh! We are so on the same page! I just started the Wardrobe Architect series and I love Kate Davies (not that I can knit any of her things yet) and the Interpretations designers and pattern book (although I don't have it). I am very interested in that Knitting by Numbers and will have to Google and find out what it is. I am a big math person so anything with "numbers" attracts me! LOL! I also love Tilly and The Buttons for patterns and the Blueberry Waffles socks are on my sock list for sure! What a fun year this is going to be and now I can't wait to jump into my projects (this afternoon) and next week to see what everyone is making first thing out of the box! LOL! Happy YOP Year to you!

  15. Lucy fab as always! I'm so glad sewing is on there as I do love enjoying seeing your sewing projects, I always wish I could sew better. I am also toying with the From Way Back pattern, it's in the back of my mind for after I finish Herbarium :) Can't wait to see so many of those items start and finish this year!

  16. Wow, Lucy, you are ambitious! I am awed by your list. I don't know how you manage it with kids and a job!
    That is my palette, too! You have great taste. ;)

  17. I have Blueberry Waffle socks on my list too! I yearn for that pattern every time someone posts it on IG or on their blog. I'll be interested in seeing the sock projects you'll have going on.

  18. Love your plan! Very do'able and in the end look at the great things you will have to wear that are actually your specific style. I hope to move to more tunic style dresses as I lose more weight--that is my favorite style! Can't wait to see your accomplishments this year...

  19. What a great list. Love the colours you are drawn to.. 'my colours' too. I'll enjoy following your blog posts.

  20. I like the style board idea. I think sometimes we are drawn to the next pretty thing without thinking if it is worthy of our time. Very nice :-)

  21. I love double knitting - it is so addictive, and I made my first brioche project earlier this year. I love the layout of pictures interspersed through your blog. Looking forward to checking your progress every Sunday.
