Update on To-Do List

At the end of 2008 I posted my to-do list for stuff that needed to get done for 2009. I thought now would be as good a time as any to check in, see how I’m doing on my list.

Here is the original list, with my updated comments below each line:

· Sew a hunting frock for Kris
This never happened, I started one, got bored of it and ended up buying Kris one from Townsend. At least he has one now!

· Sew 2 new shirts for Kris, one with white linen and the other with green check fabric
Ummm yeah …. not so much on this one, guess it will be on my 2010 list.

· Change the ties on my red skirt to Dutch Linen Tape
Yay! One down! I did complete this one!

· Sew a new skirt with Green fabric
I am not going to do this one, I ended up not liking the fabric, so I am removing it from my to-do list.

· Sew a new skirt for myself with some beautiful wool I found
Yup, still need to do this …. hmmm good in-camp project ….

· Sew a new apron with Green fabric
Not going to do this one either, it was the same green fabric as the skirt, and I’m just not feeling it. Though I do need a new apron, so I will do this, just with a different fabric choice.

· Sew another new skirt with Silk fabric I found on sale
This has been put on the back burner, I have no need for a fancy dress right now, so I probably won’t get to this until after next year’s season.

· Buy a Robe D’Anglais Pattern
I ended up taking a gown making class, so I have no need for this anymore.

· Sew a Robe D’Anglais with a simple linen fabric (need to buy)
This is done from the class I took, well I need to finish a few things on it, but it’s pretty much complete.

· Sew a Robe D’Anglais with Green silk fabric (need to buy)
This is the same as the silk skirt, I will do this after next year, though I missed out on the green silk, so I will need to find something new.

· Finish decorating straw hat
Done!! Yay!

· Sew a special camera bag for Kris
Ooops, Kris is still asking for this.

· Attach the buttons to Kris’ long Gaiters
Probably not going to happen ….. sorry Kris …..

· Sew 3 new shirts for Kolby
I ended up having enough shirts, so no need to do this this year, but most likely I will need to next year.

· Sew a wool shirt for Kolby
The old one still fit this year, so I didn’t have to do a new one.

· Sew (or have made, cause I’m not sure I can sew them) 3 pants for Kolby
Again, I ended up with enough, so no need to do this, I probably won’t have to do this next year either, it looks like I will still have enough.

Well it looks like I get a big huge fail for RevWar housewife of the year!! I only completed 2.5 things on my list. Oh well, there’s always next year right??
