Alice H2O To Go Sling (Lind's Handmade)

I try to do a fun/selfish sewing project for my birthday week...and in 2021 (yes, I'm THAT far behind on sharing, eek!) I made a super cute H20 to Go Sling with some of my fabric collection! I have always liked Alice in Wonderland, and this classic print fabric was too fun! 


All my favorite colors and the truest quote for my house.

WIP Wednesday - End of July

And somehow this is the last Wednesday of July...Didn't the month just start yesterday?? School will be starting in just a few weeks, and then, next thing I know, it will be Christmas!  I guess I need to kick the craft show prep into higher gear, especially since the first one is in just over 2 weeks!


An adorable teeny notebook, perfect sized for a doll!

Jackalope Fiona Foldover Bag - Snow Willow Designs Fabric (Lind's Handmade)

 My final project for the Cryptid Research Notes fabric round was this fun Fiona Foldover purse from Lind's Handmade Designs.  I've seen this purse now in several different fabrics and materials, and it turned out great with this fabric too!

Everyone needs a Jackalope purse!

WIP Thursday - Summertime!

It's been a scorcher this week, so of course our A/C decided to die...fortunately it's already fixed and we're cool again! As a result of the unexpected bill, I'm going to be running a sale this weekend in my FaceBook Group on fabric and ready to ship purses!  I have at least 4 tubs of fabric I need to destash, but it takes so much time to get the pics, post everything, cross post everything, create invoices, and then ship it all out! I'd love to clear out at least one tub and sell a few of the purses I made as either pattern tests, fabric promotion, or just for fun! 

These are going to be part of the sale!

Cryptids Tuesday Tote - Snow Willow Designs Fabric (Knotted Thread Patterns)

My second project for the amazing Cryptid Research Notes fabric that is currently up for preorder at Snow Willow Designs was the super fast Tuesday Tote from Knotted Threads Patterns. I had a few extra of the Sack Set panels left, and they were *almost* big enough for the top piece. My choices were to make the bag slightly smaller OR add in a fun accent of the Jackalope fabric to make it bigger!

Trying a new photo editor option that removes ALL background. Is it weird?

WIP Tuesday - Zooming Past

July is already flying by, and it just started! I don't even know where the first week went, but at least I managed to get some stuff done... The strike fabric projects are finally done, but I still need to get pretty pics for when it is my turn to share. I have a few embroidery projects that I need to finish as well. I have been spending time cleaning and organizing, which you can barely tell since there is so much waiting for me to do!  

Just a few of the recent stitch outs, have a bunch more!

Kraken Book Sleeve - Snow Willow Designs Fabric (Sewn Ideas)

The current preorder at Snow Willow Designs is this epic Cryptid Research Notes round! It is definitely not my usual 'cute' fabric, and it's super fun! I used the sack set and the Research Notes Blank Pages to make a large Book Sleeve from Sewn Ideas, which is kind of perfect.

I love sea monsters.
