Update on my "2012 Sewing Goals" and "Before the End of the Year" to do list

At the beginning of the year, I posted my "2012 Sewing Goals" and I figured it was time for an update to see how I've been doing.

I  haven't really fulfilled my blog goal of more photos, but I'm always trying!

Now for the sewing goals -- costuming.
  1. Finish my gypsy steampunk ensemble. DONE
  2. 1875 Square Overskirt (Truly Victorian) in black and silver plaid. DONE
  3. Pink and black steampunk ensemble. DONE
  4. An underbust corset out of left over key print flannel to wear with my Keeper of the Keys skirt and a blouse for steam casual events - Started and probably about halfway finished
  5. 1884 Wash Overskirt. Haven't even thought about this one. Maybe a new overskirt for Ohayocon?
  6. I do want to do a sari inspired head to toe Victorian ensemble. This hasn't happened either.
  7. Female Joker. DONE
  8. I'd love to a natural form Victorian costume. Also hasn't happened.
  9. I'd still like to do an 18th century costume. Not necessarily a 2012 project. Nor has this.
  10. And I also have a desire to do a French Huguenot costume. Or this
  11. A Victorian bathing suit. Or this
Costuming goals - only 4 out of 11 are finished

Other sewing goals:
  1. My two retro sundresses from my free patterns. One of these is DONE
  2. I'd still like to make a playsuit with removable skirt, the project that never happened last summer. DONE
  3. I have a throw I made from concert tshirts that I'd like to enlarge. Not done.
  4. I have some flannel I'd like to make into a quilt. Or this.
  5. I have some Spiderman flannel that wants to be pajama pants. DONE
  6. And some nativity printed cotton that wants to be a dress. DONE except it became a nightgown
  7. A circle skirt out of Halloween pin up fabric. DONE
  8. A high waisted skirt from my retro jumper pattern. DONE (part of my femme Joker costume)
Other sewing goals: 5 out of 8.


Other things NOT on my 2012 list that I've done:
  1. Commission for a friend.
  2. Summer shorts to wear around the house.
  3. Lots of embroidery.
  4. Sewing for my nephew.
To finish before the end of the year:
  1. My embroidered quilt. I hope to have the embroidery done and the quilt top assembled by Christmas.
  2. Suicide Squad Harley Quinn.for Ohayocon
  3. New collar and cuffs for my Harley Quinn bodysuit for Ohayocon
  4. Keeper of the Keys corset
  5. Leggings for Pepper
  6. Maybe some new steamy awesomeness for Ohayocon, like that wash overskirt...
  7. Harley Quinn pajama pants for Ohayocon 
  8. Suspenders for my femme Joker
  9. New bodice for my black and silver steampunk
Not doing too bad, am I?
