Clearance buttons are my catnip. |
When you find adorable fabric on sale to match clearance buttons, you can't pass it up! |
I don't feel like I got a lot done this weekend, but it was nice and gloomy and that makes me want to curl up and read a book. Or take a nap. Or nap with a book on top of me because I started reading it and gave in to the power of the nap. Or is that just me?
The sparkle on this purse is pretty epic, and hard to photograph. |
Etsy orders are coming in pretty steady, but I should really work on having some more on hand items and also more ears...I even have some Pokemon inspired ears to go on headbands that I really need to stitch up...and a unicorn horn to go with all the ears...and fox ears...sea monster ears...
If I can resist crushing some candy, I bet I can get a lot more done this weekend...hopefully!
Current Projects:
- Teacher purse - Hosta Hobo - Started sewing, planning on finishing by Friday - good thing every week has a Friday
- Jack Skellington Wisteria Wallet
- Swoon Sydney messenger bags for birthday presents (from April and May...)
- Request for a 'small purse' for my youngest who has outgrown her Frozen Serendipity Hip...time to find it a new home!
- Finish clematis that were cut at the same time as the swap one (3)
- Storm Trooper shirt for me (super cute pattern, hopefully doesn't emphasize my 'mom bod')
Current Crochet Projects:
- WeeBee baby doll - 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!
- C2C (corner to corner) baby doll blanket crochet with some random scarfie yarn - Need to figure out what hook I was using...
- Mermaid tail towel, 2 skeins of yarn into this, I must be doing something wrong because it's not THAT big yet and I only have 2 or 3 more skeins to go.
- 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...
- Started a princess dress style blanket - Need to just add a border on the sides and it's done! Even have pieces already attached :O
