I love seeing all the cool things people made in the sleek and lovely photo mosiac format, and it’s been a treat to see Linda’s and Sarah’s colorful craft collages so far this week, so I thought I’d mix up my favorite crafts of 2008 as well!

They seem to fall into four categories with some overlaps: sewn baby stuff, Barack Obama prints, CraftStylish beading and jewelry projects, and holiday decorations. Some of my favorite things are in the mix for sure — whales, voting, gocco, felt, glitter, rhinestones, vintage beads, and an octopus for good measure.

What things did you make last year that you really liked? I’d love to see them if you want to comment and give links!
