WIP Wednesday - August?? Seriously??

This summer is flying by, more so than usual!  I'm not ready for August and school to start!
Rapunzel is a perfect fit for the flap!
It doesn't seem like I'm doing that much (to me at least), but I did finally get the pieces of the Speedwell sling cut out and fused, after psyching myself up to cut into my ONLY panel.  This one is rarer than gold (almost) and there's no way I could get another one unless I wanted to trade both a kidney and my firstborn child! I'm kind of attached to both of those.
The first of the month also means new fabric up for preorder at MoonBeam Textiles!!  (aff link) Check out this collage of some of the cool projects the strike off sewologists did!  I'll be sharing my purse later today, so keep an eye out for that post!

  • C2C (corner to corner) baby doll blanket crochet with some random scarfie yarn - Need to figure out what hook I was using...
