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...

If I were smart, I'd work on adding things to Etsy that are ready to ship, or can be made pretty quickly (like doodle dolls), and stitching up samples of purse styles to use up some of my fabric collection... I have so many plans and I might actually have some of that magical 'free time' I've read about!
