WIP Friday - Fall is Coming!

Now that the kids are back in school, it really is starting to feel like fall!  Except for the fact that today's high is in the 90's....but the Pumpkin Spice Everything is already here! New favorite Starbucks drink is the cold brew with the pumpkin spice sweet cream and white chocolate syrup in place of the vanilla....It's AMAZING.

Floral Wars NCW (Emmaline Bags)

I've shared a few pictures here and there, but this one really deserves a post by itself!

The 'top' view to see all of R2!

Tattspirational NCW

This project has been on my list forever, evolving over time as my bff changed her mind.  I finally gave her some priority when I had to do a few other NCW and it turned out even better than we had planned!

So inspiring! "Go Live Your Dreams!"

WIP Thursday - School Time!

My kids started school this week, and the oldest is heading out to college, so of course this week is flying by!  I may just have to do all my weekly posts in one day and call it good!

Adult sized topper from deep in the stash!

WIP Wednesday - Bleh.

I can't say last week was an entirely bad week, but it definitely wasn't a great one!  I have high hopes that this week will be better!  It was so bleh that I never even got around to posting my usual WIP post. Monday we lost power, so no sewing was even attempted (but I did try to crochet by the light of glow bracelets, kinda worked...) and Tuesday was spent redoing some vinyl handles that are the bane of my existence.  New rule, vinyl handles on a purse now add on $10 on principle.

Pillow case - great way to show off awesome fabric, but uses up almost an entire yard!

Dark Marauder's Map NCW

When I received the order for this NCW, I realized that the fabric I thought I had wasn't the one I actually had. (or maybe I did have it, but it is lost in the black hole of my fabric) Either way, it's been a while since I showed off one of these!  I actually made 4 in a row, so there will be more coming up!

I swear I still have the plain black and white fabric...somewhere.

Mouse House Summit Sling

I was excited to finally have a reason to make this pattern, and it was everything I expected!  The Summit Sling from Cloudsplitter is a good sized backpack, but not too big!

Panel was sent by the customer, just barely fit!

WIP Thursday - Not Ready for August

Instead of working on my Factotum for the final UFO project (besides the rivets on the purse project, which I DID finish), I decided to make myself a new purse for some selfish birthday sewing!  I finished it in only 2 days, but now that I've started using it I think I need to open it up and add some extra interfacing to the top, it's slightly too slouchy...but that will have to wait for a bit of free time.

Next order in progress!
