This year is wrapping up, today is the last day! It's been a FAST year for me! One of the things I am most pleased about 2010 is the creation of The Fiber Nation. It was an idea that had been rolling around my brain for quite some time, but didn't have a name so I trudged on with my personal blog
Journey of a Fiber Artist until inspiration came to me.

In 2010 I learned how to edit a video and put it here on the blog, I learned how to write a pattern (and that it's not ever as easy as you want no matter how simple the pattern seems to be!) I also broke out of my shy shell a bit, and approached people for interviews/information.
A few highlight posts for me from 2010:
I'm so excited for 2011! My goals for The Fiber Nation this year are:
- Work to offer more technique driven content
- More essays concerning topics that touch on issues we fiber artists face
- More interviews
- More videos!
I would love to be able to sit down and plan out ahead of time topics for the blog posts. However, so far I have not been able to work that way. Perhaps I'll give it another go in 2011. Of course I have personal goals for the site here: work on taking more professional images for the blog now that I have a full photo box/light set, as well as increasing readership which is happening slowly but surely!
I am feeling very positive moving into the new year! I look forward to seeing The Fiber Nation grow more this year!
