WIP Wednesday - New Year, Same List

Well, mostly the same list.

2 more mini backpacks, so cute and barely use any fabric! Available for custom orders!
My goals for this year are to finally cross off some of the UFO's and get to the 'want to makes'!  Hey, it might happen, don't laugh so hard! 
Inhaler cases in progress...hoping the punch for the cutouts comes soon, better than hand cutting!
I never did get my sewing studio completely cleaned...in fact I only got about 5 more tubs of fabric put away (versus in a GIANT pile on top of other tubs) but I did find out that I won't need to buy yarn for the next 3 years....ok, more like 10 years.  Time to start crocheting faster to go through that stash, while sewing bigger things to use up fabric, and running the embroidery machine more to use up the vinyl and felt...how soon can I get a clone?



Current Projects and Orders:

  • Pattern Test Backpack
  • Selfish Sewing - Road Trip Wallet - I was still using the Penny Inn from the pattern testing, decided it was time for something new, so that was my vacation sewing! 
  • NCW - Marauder's map -
  • NCW - Supernatural- Cut and prepped!
  • NCW - another Marauder's map - Cut and prepped, started sewing!
  • Mini Backpacks (2)
  • Boy's wallet with Stranger Things fabric
  • Minky Science blanket for my son - started, realized I wanted basting spray, rolled it back up.
  • 'normal' hoodie for youngest daughter
  • Sew Along Factotum- started sewing, but put aside again for orders.
  • Wallet of some sort with Disney fabric
  • Sandra Saddle bag - now thinks she wants a Fortnite purse  (minion order) 
  • Bandana purse - have the materials, just need time to figure it out  

Current Embroidery Projects:

  • Inhaler cases (several)
  • Patches
  • pencil toppers
  • pony ears and bows

Current Crochet Projects:

  • 4 slouchy pom pom hats for an order 
  • New hat for me - needs the pom pom attached, but I think it ended up a bit tight, rats!
  • Unicorn Weebee - already to the neck!
  • Dragon scarf - worked on it a bit, need to finish it up!
  • 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.
  • More crochet cowls to stock up for the fall shows! 
  •  C2C for my son, has 10 skeins of yarn already picked out - started and it will be a great project for the winter as soon as it's big enough to keep me warm!

UFO list:  

Fast finishes (hopefully)

  • Crayon Rolls - time to cut more, only about 3 left unsewn!
  • Embroidered Fox pillow cover - just needs the back cut and sewn!
  • 3 clematis clutches - Just need sewn! 
  • Mermaid morning glory pouch (half cut out! just for fun project so no rush)

 Ready to go, but will take a bit more effort projects:
