WIP Tuesday - Zooming Past

July is already flying by, and it just started! I don't even know where the first week went, but at least I managed to get some stuff done... The strike fabric projects are finally done, but I still need to get pretty pics for when it is my turn to share. I have a few embroidery projects that I need to finish as well. I have been spending time cleaning and organizing, which you can barely tell since there is so much waiting for me to do!  

Just a few of the recent stitch outs, have a bunch more!

It just hit me that I have my first craft show coming up in less than a month, so I need to start finishing up all the random stuff I've been making so far this year! I have a bunch of keyfobs waiting for cutting out and snaps, embroidered hoods that need attached to towels, plus I need to restock my doodle dolls! Time to get the machine running non-stop!
