WIP Wednesday - Mini Break

As much as I really do love sewing and crafting, sometimes I just need to take a break and read a book or watch a movie, or do something that is not productive to give my hands and mind a break.  I have deadlines to meet, but I'm actually on track so I decided to give in and read a few books that were calling my name!

Tiger charms ready for purses!

I did get some sewing and crafting done, but nothing like I had originally planned! Instead I read 2 books and started watching Star Trek Discovery.  I have to say it's much better than I expected and I'm hooked!  I haven't been inspired to make a costume for a while, but the new Klingons have some really cool armor...hmmm....

My awesome peg board in action

But first, back to the orders! Need to stay on track and see if I can keep my turn around to a month or less!  Hopefully next week will have lots of things crossed off the list, and maybe more added!
