It was definitely a productive cross stitch year. I went for quality, not quantity this year and completed 10 projects and 2 of those took all year to complete.

Other Hobbies
- Card Making - I estimated that I needed 47 cards this year. I made 21 new ones and used 10 extra Christmas ones I made several years ago.
- Reading - I met my challenge and read over 50 books this year (actually 60)
- Theatre Scrapbooks - are now all up to date, ready for when we can go back to watching live theatre performances.
- Colouring Books - I didn’t colour once a month in them. I did 1 autumn page and I coloured on quite a few cards.
- Puzzles - we completed 2 of the 7 we had, and bought a few new ones too which we have also completed. So we still have some left for the winter months.
- Gardening - not a very productive year (too hot and dry), but we had fun trying to grow some new flowers. I finally got my Four O’Clock flower seeds to grow and even collected the seeds from the plants I grew for next summer. These are flowers my Grandma grew every year when I was a child.
- Video Games - I started playing Animal Crossing New Horizons (Nintendo Switch).
- Blogging - I blogged 273 times for 2020 and only 117 in 2019.
