2014 HSF goals

This is mostly to get my ideas down somewhere as a reference, so apologies if this is a less exciting post than usual. Some of the goals are pretty aggressive and this is definitely more than the "half marathon" that I told myself I was striving for, so I'm giving myself permission to skip a challenge here and there to stay sane.

#1: Make Do & Mend

Complete

#2: Innovation - due Sat 1 Feb.

Skip, but plan on doing for the "ReDo" challenge later in the year.  While researching for the Pink challenge yesterday, I found a fun innovation, but have too many other projects with hard deadlines at the moment to slip this challenge in, since I was only planning to do the "half-marathon"

#3: Pink - due Sat 15 Feb.  

Embroidered handkerchief..which is turning into much more of a production than I originally anticipated
