WIP Thursday - February is Flying!

I'm not sure how it happened, but not only is the week flying by, but we are almost to another month! I definitely am not ready for March! My attempt at production sewing kind of worked, at least all 4 of the bags are finished finally!

Preview pic, I'll get nicer pics and share them eventually.

This was the only leather handled tote bag I had in my stash, but I definitely need to make this design on more of the regular bags!

Now I just need to kick it into higher speed to finish the rest of the order and start clearing the list again! I did start embroidering tote bags in my 'spare' time (sleep is for the weak), so I need to find more time to get some fun pics and list those up on Etsy...So many ideas, so little time!

  Craft Show Projects (and RTS items): Time to review the list for next year!

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.

UFO list:
