WIP Thursday - Snowy Days

Hard for me to believe, but I'm catching up again!  Obviously that means I should procrastinate on all the orders and make new stuff, right? Well, at least throw new stuff on the embroidery machine while I sew the orders...

I'll be taking orders in the FaceBook group!
I have a LOT of minky in my stash, and I just love the cute little bears, so I am trying to make samples and list them on Etsy as I get pretty pics...did I mention I have an extensive fabric collection?
A few new ones that went up on Etsy recently

 I have plans to FINALLY try making the Mean Green guy as a stuffie..I meant to try a few last year at this time and still haven't gotten around to it.  Oh, and I need to make more lanterns...and maybe some extra wallets and purses to have as 'ready to ship' items...all in my non-existent free time

Current Crochet Projects:

  • The Child giant version - only needs his clothes!
  • The Child mini version - yes, I started another one, but the big one was TOO big to take with me! and the first attempt I must have been really tired because the legs and arms were totally different sizes. Second attempt is coming together better...
  • Cotton face scrub pads - I will try to get back to these, still have all the supplies!
  • baby blanket with Boho style Racoon- 90% done with applique pieces -  need to finally put this together, maybe I'll just put it in a frame!
  • 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! - This got stashed somewhere, so I need to remember where the 'safe place' is.
  • 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, need to dig this back out.
  •  C2C blanket for my son - just needs ends woven in!

UFO list:  

Fast finishes (hopefully)

  • Crayon Rolls - 36 left to sew!
  • Embroidered Fox pillow cover - just needs the back cut and sewn! - Need to figure out where it got stashed
  • Mermaid morning glory pouch (half cut out! just for fun project so no rush)
  • strap for Brandt's Boulevard - giving up on this for now, no spare time!
  • Replace connector and rivets on Alice in Wonderland Daryl's Drive

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

  • Downsized Denver backpack - mostly cut out, just need to figure out the straps, but may go with connectors for now to try it out
