It's a new year, and I get to reset my stats! First, a look back on 2007:
Yardage In: 67.875
Yardage Out: 45.125
Items Made: 47
Money Spent: $866.33
Not bad! Not bad at all. In comparison to 2006, I cut my yardage input more than in half, as well as cutting my spending in half. I also increased my output quite a bit (helped a lot by the costume sewing I did). My yardage consumption was reduced by a lot (75% or so?), however, I only did one quilt this year, and those really eat up yardage.
One goal I've had floating in my head for the past few years was to be self-supportive with my hobby, and I did that this year. Working for the shakespeare company and getting the suzuki institute job allowed me to 'support' my hobby on my own. :)
OK -- if you click HERE, you can see all the things I created in 2007 (it's a KodakGallery album, and I set it so that you do not have to sign in. The option is there, but not necessary). Apparently, it was the year of superhero capes and cowls (there's an extra one I made that I neglected to photograph).

good for you! I love the idea of a hobby being self-supporting.
Linda - I've always wondered how I would sew if I stopped working and you've provided some great answers! Loved the pieces you made for yourself, btw!
