WIP Thursday - Time for a Fun Interlude!

I've been busting through orders pretty quickly, so I needed a break and a fun, quick project.  I decided to try some flat coloring dolls, and I'm kind of in love with them! They can be cleaned and recolored, so not just a one-time use item.  And they are totally adorable. Also much bigger than I expected...

super adorable!

I was having fun testing the dry erase markers... 

Now that I have a stack of supplies prepared for the dolls, it's time to throw them on the machine as I work on orders again. I might actually get caught up at this rate!

Current Crochet Projects:

  • 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!

  • 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.

UFO list:  

Fast finishes (hopefully)
