Preorders are starting to show up, but if I can finish at least 4 items a week, I will be on track to have everything shipped by December 16th (my goal for plenty of time to deliver for Christmas - priority mail at least)
|
Time for another reading pillow! |
|
Some more tiny notebook covers with custom printed vinyl! |
|
Swag for the final show! |
Usually I don't screw up my back until AFTER the craft shows, but since I'm getting a jump on stuff, I decided to tweak it early. Definitely slowed me down this week, but there is a lot I can do standing (the only way it doesn't hurt) so I'm not at a total stand still (pun not intended)!
|
Working on an epic bag this weekend! |
I reorganized my lists, consolidated and prioritized (in my head at least), so now I just need to keep pushing through! I can see the light at the end of the tunnel and it's not even attached to a train!

Craft Show Projects: (in
an ideal world where I was productive every minute of the day and could
work on them all day long, this would happen, but I'd be super happy to
finish even half of my list!)
- Lanterns (goal 12/50) - Maybe next week I'll sneak in a batch...

- Posh books - new obsession, have 11 different designs but only 16
books so far, need to go on a dollar store run for more books!Started using my awesome printed vinyl too, perfect for the ones that are bigger prints or I don't want to chop up!
- Keychains (goal: 20/20 sheets, pretty sure I stitched that many, have about half cut out, so time for a snap fest!)
- Bows (goal: 10 never been stitched patterns, all the ponies and princesses restocked - at least 50 actual bows)
- teeny backpacks (Giving up on these for this year, just ran out of time, and for the amount of work I put into them, they aren't huge money makers)

- Slouchy hats (goal to use up my pompom stash, so 20ish) (4/20)

Current Crochet Projects:

done with applique pieces - going back to it after I finish the unicorn!

- Cotton coffee cup cozies - add buttons and felties, keep making more...

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! - This got stashed somewhere, so I need to remember where the 'safe place' is.

yarn - Need to figure out what hook I was using...
- Mermaid tail towel, need to dig this back out.
- More crochet cowls to stock up for the fall shows!
