Happy New Year, friends! In this video I’m doing a real, honest look back at my 2025 Make Nine—what I actually made, what I didn’t, and what surprised me along the way. I’m not just listing projects; I’m talking about how the year really went in my sewing room, the choices I made (and didn’t make), and how my crafting time shifted with real life happening right alongside all the quilting and bag making. I share the wins that felt so good to finish, the plans that didn’t pan out (because let’s be honest… sometimes the vibe changes), and what I learned about setting goals that are fun instead of stressful. If you’ve ever made a Make Nine and then felt weird about not finishing everything, this is your permission slip to reflect without beating yourself up. I’m also looking forward into 2026 with that fresh-start energy—thinking about what I want to sew next and what I want my creative time to feel like this year.
