One Garment Every Month for a Year?

I don't know if I can do it but I am going to try. I have sewn many beautiful things for my two young children but now it is time to sew garments for myself. 12 as a matter of fact. I'd like to sew at least one every month. It sounds possible, right? Have two patterns and am working on my first piece. I decided that if I write about it I will have a history and be able to see my progress. Perhaps more than anything it will make me finish what I started. Well we'll see. Goal for January: One metalic linen jacket. Pattern is by Cynthia Rowley (simplicity 2443) and it is oh so cute (on the cover). Let's see how mine turns out. Not sewing today though. Much more to do. Work for one - I have boat loads. Must also hang curatins in daughter's room. A redo of her room was her 9th birthday present and we are working on the finishing touches. I don't have many window treatments that I didn't make myself so I'll be whistling while hanging the rod. Easy peasy! More later
