Here's to peace and prosperity in the New Year!

I thought I'd give everyone a New Year's update on developments. StitchMinder has been translated into Japanese by ConSysTech Inc., and will be available on the App Store soon. If anyone else would like to help out by translating StitchMinder into your favorite language, please contact me using the comment form.

I've added the open-source Mantis issue tracking system to the Quilt2Go web site -- if you're technically-minded, click on the "Issue Tracker" link at the top of the page and take a look at the feature requests and bug reports for StitchMinder and KnitMinder. If you have an issue or suggestion for either of these programs, you can enter it in the issue tracker and you will be notified by email when I fix it. You can also continue to send me suggestions using the comment form or contact me at Ravelry.

With the holiday break from work, I have been able to do some work on KnitMinder, the knitting project tracker. So far, the yarn inventory screens are pretty much done. I'm really stoked about how these turned out! Here's a preview of what they look like:

As you can see, you can list yarns by color or weight, and you can even take pictures of your yarns for reference! The little blocks in the lower left hand corner of the picture indicates the colorway of the yarn. I'll be updating the KnitMinder page as I finish work on each section, so check back for more updates.

Thanks again to everyone who has posted in the forums or gotten in touch via email. I'm looking forward to getting KnitMinder finished and into the App Store and then starting on a quilting yardage calculator that is long overdue! Keep those comments and suggestions coming!
