What projects do you have planned for the year?!

Hi Courtney and followers, especially quietlife 7186. I am trying to finish a lot of my crochet, knitting, embroidery and macrame projects I started years ago and due to life put aside. While doing this I am attempting to improve my sewing skills. I am starting small with pillow cases, toys etc. I too was struck by what quietlife 7186 said that while crocheting she feels like she is "putting her life in order somehow". I too have thst same feeling as well when crafting. Ecclesiastes 3:1-9 talks about different times. "A time to heal...A time for gathering stones...A time for keeping.... A time to repair... A time to be quiet." All are times that we need in order for us as busy women to then go out and be all that is expected of mothers either in the home and/or at work. This time is precious as we make, pray and talk to Our Lord and God who blessed us with these skills.❤😊

Courtney! I love your sewing channel, and I'm honored to be one of your subscribers. Your approach on YT is amazing, and I love the designs you are putting out - simple, flowing, and natural, with a focus on sustainable fabrics. (I particularly love the coffee segment in your videos!) Thanks for giving well done videos and patterns. I'm looking forward to seeing what you will do in 2024! (Robin Bird).

I'm one of your elderly followers who used to make clothing for myself and my children when I was your age 💖!!! Due to health challenges, I have not sewn for a long while, but I would love to make some projects that I can do from my chair. I am not able to sit up or stand for very long, so I don't think that I will be able to sew much by machine. I have enjoyed crocheting a lot!!! It's like I feel like I am putting life in order somehow when I crochet 🧶!!! I love your commitment to Christ and your ideas and how you are choosing to spend your precious time. I'm cheering you on Sweetheart!!! You are choosing the best things!!! Love and hugs. 💕🙏🥰

I’m sorry to hear that it’s been difficult to sew but I love reading that you are still continuing to make by crochet and couch-type projects ☺️ I like crocheting as well! I like how you put it: it feels like putting life in order. Thanks for all of your kind words and support! I’m so grateful for you 🤍

I am finishing my first pair of jeans this next week and they are coming together very well. Afterwards, I plan on sewing some slip dresses with various fabrics and patterns for myself, my sister and my niece. Spring is just around the corner and having a few finished dresses will be convenient to throw on before going on a day trip to the lake or beach.

[@RooneySewingPatterns]

Oh! A pair of jeans, how amazing! I also love the idea of slip dresses to throw on -- how sweet of you to make one for your sister and niece as well :) Enjoy making!

As of right now I want to learn to sew a fitted bodice and do some quilting of some sort. Maybe a jacket! I love your go with the flow approach. I have four little so it really works for me. Thanks Courtney! I appreciate you!

[@RooneySewingPatterns]

Sounds like some great project ideas, Hannah! I'd love to see these when you are finished :) And thank YOU for being here!

[@teddygingerbear1372]

I enjoy quilting & embroidery and this year I’m participating in two online via KZbin block of month with both making a queen size quilt and an embroidery project which happens to coordinate with the quilt. I’m also planning to make another backpack.

[@stacyoakley]

Happy New Year and praying blessings on your family as you welcome a new baby! Thank you for sharing the planner ❤

[@LivFowler77]

Love this! I’m planning on making the Betty wrap dress this year as I already have the pattern! I’m also in a season of holding my plans loosely so anything else is just a bonus!

[@RooneySewingPatterns]

I love that view: everything else is a bonus 🤍

[@RooneySewingPatterns]

Thanks for letting me know! I think the video got damaged in the process of uploading to YT, I'll keep an eye on this next time :)

[@Feneshandollhouse]

Where did you get the large Kraft paper pad? Neat!

[@sonjadoyle2761]

Did you make your outfit?

[@RooneySewingPatterns]

I did! I made the jacket from a worn quilt and the Billie Jacket pattern from my shop :)

I'm not sure if it's happening for others or not, but the video file seems to be corrupted in many spots. I'm not upset about it, just pointing it out in case you want to know!
