Final thoughts:
I've been keeping FO photo sets since 2007. That year I had 34 items (but since I started mid-year that number may not be accurate.) In 2008 and 2009 I had higher numbers (in the 70's.) This year I had 60 items in the photo set, but there were a lot of duplicate pictures. Despite the lower numbers, I feel like this was one of my most productive years. I think because I made bigger items. (2009 was FILLED with dishcloths.)

Here's to 2011! May we all have a productive, happy year!
