WIP Wednesday - End of the Year!

I can't say I'll be sad for 2020 to finish... I'd love to get more of the random things marked off my list, but I think I did pretty good for the craziness that was this year.  My plan for next year is to try to spend at least 15 minutes a day organizing/sorting/cleaning the craft studio. I'd love to have one of those picture worthy studios, but when I get focused on things, I tend to pile whatever I'm finished with off to the side to 'put away later' ;)

One last order for 2020. Not that I'm caught up, but this is probably the only one I'll finish in the next 2 days...

Mouse Ears Boon Wallet (xoxo by Lauren)

 It has been quite a while since I shared a Boon Wallet! It's a fast and fun pattern, with cute styling!

Yellow isn't usually my favorite, but this one looks so happy!

WIP Thursday - All the Coffee Please

I'm at the point where I know nothing I finish now will get to anyone by Christmas, so I'm just trying to get as much done as I can in hopes I can start the new year with a manageable order list...my vacation starts tomorrow from the day job, so I'm hoping I can take advantage of the extra time in my day to catch up on housework (dust bunnies are now part of the family, they've been around for that long), tame the disaster that is the craft studio (craftermath?), and figure out what I need to destash/donate from my older supplies. I probably have enough yarn in my stash to yarn bomb a small office building...or a large one.

Need to list this one up for sale, I don't NEED more blankets!

Pretty Purple Begonia Drawstring Backpack (Blue Calla)

Continuing the Begonia theme, this is one my youngest picked for her teacher's gift for the end of school (in May...I'm a little behind on sharing). With the quarantine and everything, they were all virtual and we weren't even sure how we'd get it to her!  Fortunately they let us schedule time to go pick up the school supplies and say goodbye to the teachers. It was a bittersweet time since it was her last year in elementary and she didn't get to do all the fun 5th grade things like end of year field trips, awards assemblies, class parties, or even saying goodbye to her friends!

Un-squished

WIP Thursday - The End Is Nigh!

I think I'm about to hit the wall for the pre-Christmas orders.  At least if I want to get them delivered without paying 10x more for overnight shipping...I'm still going to try to get as many orders finished as I can, but there's a minimal chance they will actually get delivered before the 25th.

A few more bears

De La Luna Begonia Drawstring Backpack (Blue Calla)

The Begonia Drawstring Backpack  from Blue Calla Designs is one of my favorite quick sews!  It's just stylish enough to be interesting, but simple enough to whip up in a day! 

I'm pretty sure there's a cool story to this fabric design

WIP Thursday - December? Um, No Thanks.

I'm definitely not ready for it to be December already, I have waaaaaaaay too much to do still!  I'm keeping busy and resisting naps (seriously, that is a major accomplishment some days) but I could use an extra week or 3 inserted before Christmas. 

Another fun reading pillow. Too bad this used up almost all of that Alice fabric!
