<p>I'm still doing well. I bought one item of clothing which was not possible for me to make (currently) - a technical cycling shirt that was serged together. But, other from that, I haven't bought any clothing or even accessories this year.</p>

<p>How cool! That sounds like a really good challenge you have set yourself Rachel. Just wondering how everyone else is getting on..... I still have not bought any clothes and we are well into April ;0)</p>

<p>I recently decided to do a similar thing. I am fed up with RTW clothing, and the throw away, buy new culture right now. I decided I would sew all my own clothing from now on, and figure out how to make the things I can't. I will probably still purchase socks and undies :) Anyways, it is a neat challenge for me, not only in deciding what to make to build a wardrobe, and then figuring out how to make it, but in re-designing the way I think about clothing in every way.

I have made two dresses, two skirts, and two blouses so far... my plan is to donate one corresponding item of my current wardrobe as I make something new, until it is all phased out and all I own are made by me garments.</p> This is quite cool.

<p>This is quite cool. I don't think I bought many new things last year, so this is so up my alley. I should sign up for this.</p>

<p>My sewing goal for 2012 is to try to do as many of the Sew Weekly themed projects as possible, make a dent in my fabric stash/use the patterns I've purchased, and learn to use my serger. I'd also like to try some upcycling projects.</p>

<p>If I do really well on my sewing goals, I am going to save up for a Royal dress form! :)</p>

<p>My sewing resolution is to manage my sewing stash and list it in a binder by color and yardage. Also to donate the fabric that I do not like anymore. My goal is to use the fabric that I have and not to purchase any new fabric in 2012 unless it is a planned purchase of fabric after I have reviewed my fabric binder.</p>

<p>I really like the idea of not buying any RTW in 2012. Only...I am not making socks or even attemping a bra! 34F...not gonna even try it! I would also like to actually go back and line most of the things that I have made. Made a slip that I love out of stretch lace and stretch charmois...but I want to fix all of the lazy things that I did. Looking forward to what everyone is gonna do too. :)</p>
