WIP Wednesday - Finally Got That Nap

Naps are amazing.  Why do we waste them on toddlers? I could totally use them now!
New order, this time I'm sending it unfinished so she can frame it however she wants!  Fabric from Moonbeam Textiles!
I love party pack orders that are 'random', they get so many pretty colors and clean out my stash!
After surviving the event, I took some time to catch up on sleep and then I had to clean off the cutting table...3 days in and I still don't have that much room!  My minion was 'helping' me by going through fabric for her purse and now I have a ton to reorganize and put away...new goal for June, find my ironing board again!
Trying some new packaging for keychains, starting to look almost professional!

Current Projects and Orders:

  • Add Strap to Starlet clutch 
  • Sydney with Castles and Disney 
  • Jelly Pens pillow - Half cut out, had to find the cutting mat again!
  • Pick a Pocket/Brandt's Boulevard mix wallet - Next on the cutting mat!
  • Need to add the Bandana purse back on the list, have the materials, just need time to figure it out

Current Crochet Projects:

  • Started a dragon scarf with one of my Black Friday sale buys...
  • Cotton coffee cup cozies - add buttons and felties, keep making more...
  • 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.

Fast finishes (hopefully)
