WIP Tuesday - Time to Make All the Lists!

I really need to get focused on what I'm making for the final craft shows, I just found out last week that the after Thanksgiving one was cancelled, so now I need to either find something in December (highly unlikely since signups are usually in the summer and the good shows are full) or just make sure I have extras listed on Etsy and get everything done asap! I sold enough at my last show that I really need to do another inventory of the doodle dolls and finger puppets, oh and wall art... 

A few new books for the shows, if they make it there.

Floral Wars Julep Tote Bag - RLR Creations Pattern Testing

One good thing about orders slowing down is that I've had extra time to do more pattern testing! The new Julep Tote bag from RLR Designs is definitely a fun bag and I'm very happy I was able to fit it into my schedule for testing!  The pattern makes a nice roomy bag, with lots of pockets!

R2 had to be front and center, he's the best!

WIP Thursday - Wings Everywhere!

This year I really did try to prep for the 'wing season' I have every September as people start planning Halloween costumes...but then I got one person ordering for her family and that wiped out my prep work! I still have time to make more, but 8 in one weekend is now my new limit.  

Doll sized, Police, and Flying puppy wings!

Amari Tote Bag - Pattern Testing for The Styled Magnolia

This is the first time I've gotten to test a bag for The Styled Magnolia, and I have to say that it was a super cute and fast one! Even better, I was able to snag some of the clear vinyl they sell and it was so nice to sew up! The Amari Tote bag comes in 2 sizes, and it's on sale this week!

Kitties in witch hats? Too cute!

Dragon Phoebe Mini Backpack - Knitorious Fabric and Sincerely Jen Patterns

I can't even express how excited I was to get to sew up some of this GORGEOUS Abraxos Tan fabric from Knitorious for the new Bookish round! I love dragons and flowers, and this is just amazing! The fabric is based off the Sarah J. Maas Throne of Glass books and the dragon Abraxos. I admit, I hadn't read that far in the series when I received the fabric, but I finally read far enough to understand the flowers!  I was thinking that a backpack would be really handy for a dragon rider, and the Phoebe from Sincerely Jen fit the panel perfectly!

A small backpack, but not tiny!

WIP Wednesday - Where Did September Come From?

Somehow the last few weeks FLEW by, and I didn't even have a spare moment to update the blog! I'm going to blame school starting, which added an extra level of stress to the day (no school busses, so we are the drivers) and allergies hitting everyone in the house. Or it could have been start of school colds, hard to say. No matter what, I'm pretty sure August lasted about 5 minutes, and September will be just as fast!

It's actually a deep green blanket and matching stitching under the embroidery, but my camera does what it wants.

Mane Event H20 to Go With Extra Pocket

 The H2O to Go Sling from Lind's Handmade is really becoming a popular pattern for me!

This fabric is one of my favorites!
