WIP Wednesday - Catch Up Time!

Orders have slowed down, and (hopefully) everything else is starting to calm down. Just over a week left for my youngest kid in school, and we mainly just chill over the summer with no major plans. I'm looking forward to having a little bit of free time to play with my fabric and patterns (and probably should organize the sewing studio...if I have to). 

Some of the new styles I picked up, need to get busy stitching out a bunch of these, I can list them on Etsy even!

The 'large' teeny backpacks, another thing I always plan to make for shows and never seem to have time...

Pew Pew Genevieve - Pattern Testing (ChrisW Designs)

This pattern has been around for a while, but when Christine decided to revamp it with updated instructions and pattern pieces, and re-release it, I jumped on the chance to finally make it!  The Genevieve is a roomy bag with some pockets, but not a pocket overload, so it's pretty fast to make!

My baby Ewok was a great model. He needs a name...

WIP Monday - This is the May

It used to be just May 4th was 'Star Wars Day' but now I think pretty much all of May is considered to fall into it. I grew up on the original trilogy, have cosplayed as SW characters, and have an absurd amount of SW decorations in my house, plus a stockpile of SW fabric, so I'm all for it lasting the entire month! I intended on sneaking in more projects before the 4th so I could share them, but May is also one of the busiest months for us! 

sneaky peek!

R2 Sneaky Satchel (ChrisW Designs)

 I admit, R2-D2 is one of my favorite characters from Star Wars.  When I had the request to make this fun bag, I had to talk myself into cutting into the super cute Floral Wars fabric from Knitorious and not hoard it for myself!

The print is very detailed and perfect sized for this little flap!
