Tula Pink Honesuckle Hobo, take 2! (Blue Calla Designs)

Before I had even finished the first Honeysuckle Hobo, I had an order for another one! The same fabric line, but a different color set.  I really wish I was a super fast sewologist, then I could have gotten pics of the 2 together.  Or maybe if I had mad photoshop skills I could put them in the same pic, but I don't have time for that!
The colors on this line are so vibrant and really pop with the black!

WIP Thursday - Nearly to the End of UFO July Challenge!

I am keeping up with the UFO Challenge for this month, but for this week I want to do a little different thing.  Instead of trying to finish something, I'm only setting my goal as finding, figuring out where I was, and then doing at least 2 more steps on my Factotum.  Of course to do that I'll have to clean/organize the pile at the end of my sewing table...so that might be more work than actually finishing something!

Demon Hunters Minimalist Wallet (Noodlehead) - Moonbeam Textiles

The second project (but technically first one completed) for my Moonbeam strike sewing is the Minimalist wallet.  I love how fast this one comes together and the unique style!

Pie and Demons Rosie Crossbody Bag (Swoon) - Moonbeam Textiles

When I saw the strike fabric for Moonbeam Textiles, I practically begged for this panel!  It's so awesome that I am definitely going to be ordering more!
This is going on my to-do list for sure!

WIP Thursday - STILL (almost) on target for UFO July!

I'm not going to set a HUGE goal for this next week's UFO, my youngest had her birthday this week, and that means this Saturday is going to be her party with anywhere from 9 to 25 people...and since it's going to be at our house, that means extra cleaning!  I almost have the UFO for last week finished, just needs the final piece of the closure and the sides sewn!
Strike sewing for Moonbeam Textiles current round!  Awesome fabric!

WIP Thursday - Staying On Target for UFO July!

I did it, totally finished up the UFO for last week!  It only took me about 5 hours and a trip to 2 stores, but I got them done...now this week's UFO *should* be faster. I picked the NCW that's been on the list forever (and already claimed and paid for by a very patient friend) as my week 2 UFO, so that's hopefully a quick one.
Can't wait to share the entire project, it's even more adorable than I expected!

The Pegasus Tote is such a perfect sized small cross body, and great for showing off some amazing fabrics!
Tried to get the whole gang on it but Will kept getting cut off.

Unexpected Hobbit Journey - The One With The Baby Diaper Bag (Sincerely Jen)

It seems like lately I've been making mostly smaller items and purses, so this was a BIG change!  Don't get me wrong, one of the best things about custom orders is the variety and challenge, but it did take a little bit of a mindset switcheroo to get back into the 'million and twelve' pieces of the bigger bags!
Zippered pouch side, nice and roomy!
