Oh my goodness what an amazing year of art! I’m looking forward to seeing how things go and I’ll post my SAL in the Facebook group when it’s done.

[snoppynewall]

OMG Tori, you're going to be a busy girl ❤, I've just ordered the book Quilts in Italy I might manage to keep up with you 😂

[sallysewing]

I love Kaffe Fasset but I haven't the patience for a quilt! I do however have a plan in my To Do book to make a Losing My Marble Bag!

[mandybridger]

Hope you feel better soon Tori, good luck with all your new projects, I’ve a few things I want to do this year, which is why I’m not doing the Sal this time. Looking forward to your next video, whatever it may be 😊 Happy crafting xx ❤

[clefkng]

Wow Tori were to start you are going to be super busy as will I watching you create I may not join in but know I will be cheering for you 🙂

[kimtownsend]

Wow thats a lot of projects Tori, I cannot knit much and do some crochet, but can't really follow a pattern, I have a half made white dragon, I was making with help from my friend, I just finished making all my succulent leggo, and I have a room kit to start also a new sewing machine I received from my family, to set up. I thought I had a lot on, a crochet bag to line and another rice bag to finish, but I think you are going to out craft me lol 😅 oh and a couple of project bags to knock up for my daughter and a felted mushroom for her sister-in-law 😂 Now you know why I don't do the prompt lists. 🥴 what a wonderful fabric haul you have, those lush colors and textures, I look forward to seeing all the things you are up to this year,
I really hope you feel better soon, hugs 🥰⛄🌈🤗

[Craftaartissaurus]

Aww so many things to do. Yep I will be in boots and all, lol. Gosh those fabrics were a find go you. Must get on I have a postcard I want to start. ❤

[stevieeteson]

Hello from Barnsley! I had no idea Fabworks existed and will be hunting it down pronto. Thank you :)

[sharonb]

One day I am going to keep a notebook near me when watching your videos so I can make notes of what I would say to you if I were in the room with you!
The ones I can remember most are:
I hope you feel better and better each day!
20p for that whole ball of dmc thread!? Bazinga! Bargain!
and those velvety velours in the bright colours and the peacock fabric pieces- there were two pieces similar- almost a jacquard look to them- OMG! So wonderful and happy for you to find these!! I again wish I could visit Leeds and the other fab shops you have around the places you go, too! SO FUN!!
I think the pieces you sort from the barrel are a brilliant idea! It's the best way to have some of the more plain fabrics in amounts most likely to be used. I stay awayfrom looking at the bolts of fabrics at my local Spotlight because there are SO MANY that I would like just a small piece of... and even buying a half metre or quarter metre if they would let me- would still be too much. So I buy from the offcuts bin on occasion and buy too often from the fat quarters table/bin that they have - sometimes I"m able to get some great designs (all cotton quilting fabric) - for AU$1 each. I use them in my postcards mostly-- as that is what I am into making - but I know I have lots of pieces that I will not likely use again until I am senile and don't remember using them before! LOL I keep thinking I should cut them up into smaller but decent sized pieces and then find a place to swap them or sell them or whatever... as I have very limited space for my crafts and I am really at capacity if I were a reasonable person. lol
I love seeing your hauls and your plans- Thank you for taking the time to share yourself and your plans/ideas- even when not feeling so good. Take care of you!! xxoo
