WIP/UFO Wednesday - Distractions Galore!

Right now I'm in a crafting mood (I usually am...rarely in a cleaning mood though, how strange...) but I can't seem to focus on just one project.  Instead, I'm jumping from one thing to another and as soon as I hit a snag or find something shiny to distract me, I realize I've started yet another project!  This week I decided I wanted to make the Bonnie with the Beast from Beauty and the Beast, but when I decided my original glitter vinyl bottom didn't really go, I had to stop and find a new vinyl, and then find a new fabric to go with the already cut out vinyl.  It makes sense in my head. ;)

Cotton Lycra panel in kid sized...will be perfect for a purse!

I totally love this fabric.

And then I needed to do a few etsy orders on the embroidery machine, which meant that I was at the computer and decided I had to try out some of the latest designs I bought...so instead of sewing, I was deciding on colors and materials for some fun new patterns.  Good news is that as soon as I get some fancy pictures, there will be more listings for Etsy!

Star combs are done with glow in the dark thread.  Ravenclaw comb is super sparkly too!

I really need to finish up at least ONE purse in the next week...but the way I'm working, there might be 5 more in various stages of completion by next Wednesday.

Current Projects:

• Baby mermaid gown - Need to find the fabric...it's in a packed box...might get pushed back since the baby is here and she's bigger than newborn sized!
• Teacher purses (school's out, but they are willing to wait - fabrics all picked out, pattern printed and half cut out, goal is to finish before the end of July!)
• Springs Creative projects (2) (One left, interfacing all prepped, need to cut the fabric!)
• Swoon Sydney messenger bags for birthday presents (from April and May...)
• Beast Bonnie Bucket Bag - Halfway done...at the sewing stage if I can keep from getting distracted

Interesting way to do a welt pocket, not sure if I want to stick in a zipper too...

Current Crochet Projects:

• WeeBee baby doll  -  Tail/bikini left.Just needs some face details, and maybe a swimsuit to wear when she's not in her tail...bikini sort of works...made up my own pattern and it's interesting...
• Chunky Unicorn Blanket - almost finished up to the hood, then just ears, horn, and fringe!
• Figuring out C2C (corner to corner) crochet with some random scarfie yarn...ran out of yarn before I finished!  Now to decide if I frog back with yarn that hates being undone, or buy another skein if I can find it...
• Started the Mermaid tail towel, hopefully will come together fast since it using a giant hook and thick yarn.
• Started working on cowls for the fall because they are mindless and fast...but I really should totally finish them, not leave them with tails and button-less...

Next Projects: (orders and using up fabric)

• Handkerchief Purse
• Bag of the Month - not going to make it by the end of June, but I'm going to do several of these eventually!
• custom knit leggings - Harry Potter marauder's map (?)
• Tote bags using my coffee panels - India Swoon Pattern?
• Baby quilt - Jungle Path pattern
• Ruched Shirt
• 2 more Sydney purses
