WIP Wednesday - Almost Turkey Time!

I'm busy getting everything ready for tomorrow -- at least I no longer have to stash everything out of the way since it's all contained to my sewing/craft studio.  Except for the tubs and bags in our family room waiting for the next craft show.  (I'm not about to risk them in the basement where there is construction going on, besides all those stairs...)

Next order, only a minor panic attack as I was cutting since I only have one of the top panels!

Once the house is back to a manageable state (craft season means even less housework gets done than usual), I'll be able to jump back into the craft show prep!  I'm so close to finished with orders, and I'm really trying to get them all done and mailed before December, but with the show on December 1, I may have to take a break and bust out stuff to fill my booth.

Fun charms for the craft show!

I just need to make sure I don't waste a minute of time for the next week and a half!  None of that 'sleeping' or 'sitting still' stuff!  My list hasn't gotten any shorter and may have grown actually....

I could use some magic right about now...

Current Projects and Orders:

• Triple Zip bag - Archer fabric
• Yoshi India Hobo bag - Shipped out
• Mary Poppins Bag/Minky Stitch blanket, Stitch cross body bag (1 order, so need to finish it all together)

• NCW - Marauder's map
• Sew Along Factotum- started sewing, but put aside again for orders.
• Wallet of some sort with Disney fabric (was going for a purse, but she changed her mind since wallet is needed more - BFF order - probably working on this in December.  Maybe.) 
• Sandra Saddle bag - now thinks she wants a Fortnite purse - Christmas sewing plan! (minion order) 
• Bandana purse - have the materials, just need time to figure it out 

Craft Show Wish list: (Things I'm planning on finishing up before Dec 1, if the stars align and magic happens)

•  Embroidered hooded towels - good Kohl's sale means I stocked up on more towels...so now I need to sew even more! - Goal of finishing up all the ones I have stitched this week, then adding in more next week.
• Kitchen embroidered towels, down to just a few so I ordered another 50 towels... These will run on the machine with minimal (hopefully) supervision while I'm working on a million other things.
• Zippered ID pouches - next week will be pouch time, planning on cutting out a stack and going for it assembly line style
• Clematis - 3 cut and ready to sew together
• Crayon rolls - stack cut out and ready to sew, add in a few more of the newer character fabrics like Peppa, more Avengers, Daniel Tiger
• Finger puppets - Daniel Tiger, Sharks, rain forest animals, Star Wars, Beast
• bows - stitch out unicorns, princesses, more ponies, wreck it Ralf, etc - going to cut out the stockpile I found first and get them glued!
• Keychains - need more stitched, fortnite for sure, other new ones I recently bought, plus restock the favorites
• Ornaments - finish cutting out the HP ones, stitch more bitten gingerbread men, cut out all the doctor who ones 
• little kid purses - would love to do several Emma and Sweet Pea ones, but will probably run out of time! 
• Crochet cowls - have a few made, need to add buttons, do a few more. 
• Princess aprons - bought panels and just need to sew them up, maybe add a little bling or make them reversible...
• lanterns with custom fabric.  Way prettier than you might imagine, and they look fun to make, so may jump the line!

Now to figure out what I'm actually doing...

• 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!
• 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, 2 skeins of yarn into this, I must be doing something wrong because it's not THAT big yet and I only have 2 or 3 more skeins to go.
• More crochet cowls to stock up for the fall shows! 
•  C2C for my son, has 10 skeins of yarn already picked out - started and it will be a great project for the winter as soon as it's big enough to keep me warm!
