WIP Wednesday - Speedy September, Sneaky October

 Is it just me, or did September flash past? We're already a week into October and I am not sure how that happened...

Cute little things that actually went quick for once!

 I feel like the list was starting to get shorter, but where's the fun in that?? Orders are starting to fill up already for October, plus strike projects and some pattern testing are sneaking on the list. My goal is to get back down to a 6 week turnaround, but if I start squeezing in more random stuff for ready to ship sales, I don't know if that will happen.

Current Crochet Projects:

• The Child giant version - only needs his clothes!
• The Child mini version - yes, I started another one, but the big one was TOO big to take with me! and the first attempt I must have been really tired because the legs and arms were totally different sizes. Second attempt is coming together better...
• Cotton face scrub pads - I will try to get back to these, still have all the supplies!
• baby blanket with Boho style Racoon- 90% done with applique pieces -  need to finally put this together, maybe I'll just put it in a frame!
• Dragon scarf - worked on it a bit, need to finish it up!
• Cotton coffee cup cozies - add buttons and felties, keep making more...
• 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! - This got stashed somewhere, so I need to remember where the 'safe place' is.
• 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, need to dig this back out.
•  C2C blanket for my son - just needs ends woven in!
