Things I made in 2014 (some still need a bit of finishing, but are mostly done), with comments:
1. Smooth Sailing grey wool trousers: need hemming, nice wardrobe staple, will be good for when I have to look professional or something like a grown-up ;p

2. 1790s plum silk stays: technically need tape over the seams, but wearable as is, SO GLAD to finally have these done!

3. 1790s cotton-linen shift: practical and useful

4. 1942 green linen dress: my first handsewn buttonholes!

5. 1790s striped chemise gown: for once I actually made something to go over my historical undergarments!

6. Baby quilt

7. Game of Thrones Tyrell gown and 8. GoT Jaime coat: this was fun

9. Regency hat: look an accessory to go with a garment! Also new territory for me :)

10. 1880s bustle pad: going to be using this in 2015

11. Bridesmaid dress: it was fun making drafting up my own design, but not making a whole dress in beige

12. Retro tan houndstooth pants: finished these in time to wear to Europe, but never got around to documenting, I'm wearing the pants in this picture, I'm also being a bear because the sign says Bear Lane... Makes sense right?

I did a terrible job on my 2014 goals, but don't care at all. I ended up wanting to sew different things. It happens. :p

On average I managed to sew one thing per month. Not bad for me. I also tried out a lot of new techniques and made a wide variety of garments. 2015 will mostly be CoCo sewing: lots of 1880s stuff and possibly a couple of other eras thrown in, plus many more accessories! :)
