Sewing plans for 2013

So as everyone else is doing theirs, here are my sewing plans for 2013. 
I will be sewing on a tighter budget than usual. And I will be trying to make the pieces I want to make fit both my own 'Doctor Who sew a long' and The Dreamstress' 'Historical sew a long'.

Swing trousers (and perhaps a bow tie). 
Also need a white frilly fitted shirt and a waistcoat.
Other cold wear projects include tartan 1920's style pinafore/jumper


Clara Bow inspired dress



Some striped PJ's (this may be put on back burner for a while)

Some victorian/edwardian bloomers

A 40's style dress. My playsuit plans are on hold at the moment.
Colour may change
And a cape/cloak...design to be confirmed.
I also have an apron and matching headscarf to sew.

So that's 11 things on my current list. I would say most is cake rather than frosting.
