Happy 2012
Not that I want to end the year on a bad note, but sadly I have to conclude that the wonderful Crazy January Challenge 2011 organized by Minna was indeed... crazy... Life threw too many curve balls for me to keep my needles straight and so... I failed... miserably...
I did do more than I showed you before misery reared it's ugly head, so here are three more finishes...
JBW's Scaredy Cats (with a small change because I ran out of Gentle Art's Fragrant Cloves and couldn't find another skein from the same dye-lot) and French Country ~ Angel, and Rites of Spring by Blackbird Designs.
That still makes less than half of the 15 I was aiming for... O well, better make it a two-year challenge then???? I will keep at it and hopefully 2012 will be the year!
Happy New Year!!

I love the pieces you finished! I don't join challenges, because I know I couldn't do it, so hats off to you or even trying! Wishing you all the best in the new year.
It doesn't matter if you fullfilled all your plans regarding the challenge - the most important thing is that you had fun stitching the designs and that you are stayed healthy! :o) Happy New Year!

Oh Harmien, your stitching is beautiful! Don't worry, I failed completely too, I'm planning on counting my failure tonight in my blog :) Have a wonderful New Year!
Pshaw. It's just a hobby. I'm perfectly content to have finished just nine of the 15. Yay me! Yay you! Happy New Year, Harmien!
Harmien, any finish is not a failure! I love your Rites of Spring. Here is hoping that 2012 will be a beautiful year for you. Happy New Year!
Oh golly....you did great, it's three more finishes than you had last year this time! YAY! Happy New Year!
Great finishes Harmien. Hopefully 2012 will be a wonderful year with many lovely finishes.
Happy 2012
hugs, Margaret
It's always good to have goals, whether you achieve them or not ;o) Love the little angel!
Here's hoping that 2012 will be a better year for you ;o)
Hoping 2012 is better for you. I love your finishes and they are ALL something to be proud of.
Numbers - who cares?! These are great finishes. And have I mentioned how wonderful it is to see you blogging again? :) Best wishes for 2012!
I wish you all the best for 2012, good health, and a creative years. Greetings from Belgium
Harmien, they are beautiful! And goals are great, but we need to not beat ourselves up, if and when we don't meet them all.
Happy New Year and I am sending you wonderful thoughts for more stitching time in 2012, with not so many distractions!
Wonderful finishes...and it is definitely three more than you had before.
I hope 2012 is less stressful and full of more of the things you love :)
Oh, but you've made it a great start to 2012 by posting! I was so excited to see a post in my reader from you! I've missed you! Can't wait to hear more from you. I hope that you, Eric and the cat children are all well.
PS; Lovely finishes!
Happy New Year!
Lovely finishes Harmien.
I hope you have a great 2012
I finished precisely TWO so you did so much better! Hope 2012 is an excellent year!
Oh Harmien, don't worry about the challenge, just extent it till the end of 2012/2013 *smile*. The only important thing is, that you have fun!!! I love all of the three finishes!
Happe New Year,
Margit
Great to see you back in blogging land. Not finished your 15 January starts? I haven't finished mine either but it was a lot of fun anyway. The three finishes look gorgeous!
A Happy New stitching year to you!
Happy to see a post from you :) Happy New Year !! Hope it's a wonderful year for you.

Gorgeous pieces. I am doing my own version of the challenge - crazy7 and there's no pressure to finish them in the year. Lots of fun which is how it's supposed to be. Xx
