WIP Wednesday - Fun Stuff!

It seems like it has been a while since I had strike fabric to sew up AND a new pattern to test, but I ended up with both over the weekend, so orders were set aside to bust them out! One of the reasons I'm slowing down the number of open orders I have is so that I can do fun projects like these guilt free! 

All I know about this guy is that he is beautiful under the mask, according to my in-house expert.

I had to do them sideways, but they mostly fit!

The fabric on these posh books is still available at Longshore Custom Fabrics until the 15th! I need to decide what to add to my collection so I can finish my order. I already have one request for the pink version from my youngest, plus she's shopping my patterns to pick something perfect. ;) I'm really trying to buy less fabric this year, but it's all so pretty!

No sneak peeks of the new pattern, but I will say that it is ADORABLE!

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 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.
