WIP Friday - May!

May snuck up on me! I have so much to do that is not craft related, and only a few weeks to do it! Add in the allergies and end of school year stuff, and my time is premium right now. At least I managed to list up a stack of fabric for destashing this week...now just a few hundred more to take pics and try to sell! I have no fear that I will run out of fabric any time soon, and clearing these out will help me to actually get to the ones I really like. Maybe even start using them more?

A lovely stack of fabric

Pastel Goth Bow Fanny Bag (Zor-Elle)

Sometimes I want to make a super cute, fun, and quick bag, and the Bow Fanny Bag from Zor-Elle meets those requirements!

It keeps the shape, even hanging!

WIP Tuesday - April Speeding By

And just like that, we are almost through April! I have just over a month until my middle child's high school graduation (and party), so the time is FLYING! I feel like I've fallen into a time vortex where it goes from 5 pm to midnight when I blink, and somehow I have done nothing. I really need to get back my motivation and focus, especially with a few upcoming shows!

New wall art. Might be going up in my house...or might end up at a craft show.

A Plethora of Slip and Zip Wallets - ChrisW Designs (Pattern Testing)

Really, these wallets deserve their own posts, but there's only so many pictures you can take of a wallet! The latest patterns from ChrisW Designs are 3 sizes of Slip and Zip wallets, and while they share the same name, they are not just scaled versions of the same wallet! Each one has unique features, and they all come together pretty fast. You can now buy them separate, to get just the size you want!

All 3 together, to get an idea of size

WIP Wednesday - Spring (Again)

I feel like I can take a little tiny break, all the orders are on track, the boutique has been restocked, and I only have one pattern to test this week! Definitely time to work on destashing more of my extra fabric and organizing the sewing studio! Or I could catch up on some sleep...or do some deep cleaning...

The tip of the destash iceberg...

Mermaid Damask Coronado Crossbody - The Styled Magnolia (Pattern Testing)

I was fortunate to test the new Coronado Crossbody purse pattern from The Styled Magnolia, and after a bunch of raw edge wallets, clear projects, and other simple projects, it was a nice change! 

I think she's dreaming of all the places this purse could go!

WIP Wednesday - April SNOW showers

If April showers bring May flowers, do April snow showers bring May skiers? It was a bit odd to wake up to snow, but not that uncommon for Colorado in April...I've even seen snow in May. We should be getting close to real spring soon, which means I should be spending time in the yard clearing out the dead stuff and maybe even planting flowers! I like the wilderness look, but there is a point where 'wilderness' crosses into 'neglected'...and we're getting close! Since I'm not swamped with orders, I can finally do yard work without feeling like I'm getting behind on important stuff. 

All the recent stuffies! Just need tagged and dropped off at the Sweet Radiance Boutique
