WIP Thursday - Wings Everywhere!

This year I really did try to prep for the 'wing season' I have every September as people start planning Halloween costumes...but then I got one person ordering for her family and that wiped out my prep work! I still have time to make more, but 8 in one weekend is now my new limit.  

Doll sized, Police, and Flying puppy wings!

Amari Tote Bag - Pattern Testing for The Styled Magnolia

This is the first time I've gotten to test a bag for The Styled Magnolia, and I have to say that it was a super cute and fast one! Even better, I was able to snag some of the clear vinyl they sell and it was so nice to sew up! The Amari Tote bag comes in 2 sizes, and it's on sale this week!

Kitties in witch hats? Too cute!

Dragon Phoebe Mini Backpack - Knitorious Fabric and Sincerely Jen Patterns

I can't even express how excited I was to get to sew up some of this GORGEOUS Abraxos Tan fabric from Knitorious for the new Bookish round! I love dragons and flowers, and this is just amazing! The fabric is based off the Sarah J. Maas Throne of Glass books and the dragon Abraxos. I admit, I hadn't read that far in the series when I received the fabric, but I finally read far enough to understand the flowers!  I was thinking that a backpack would be really handy for a dragon rider, and the Phoebe from Sincerely Jen fit the panel perfectly!

A small backpack, but not tiny!

WIP Wednesday - Where Did September Come From?

Somehow the last few weeks FLEW by, and I didn't even have a spare moment to update the blog! I'm going to blame school starting, which added an extra level of stress to the day (no school busses, so we are the drivers) and allergies hitting everyone in the house. Or it could have been start of school colds, hard to say. No matter what, I'm pretty sure August lasted about 5 minutes, and September will be just as fast!

It's actually a deep green blanket and matching stitching under the embroidery, but my camera does what it wants.

WIP Friday - It's TIME!

This Saturday is the first event of the year for me, a fun little con at my local library! I've been prepping as much as I can, and even though it's not a big event, it helps me get motivated to inventory what I have and figure out what exactly I need to add to fill in the gaps! I won't be taking the blanket inventory (it's going to be 100!), but all the other fun things like doodle dolls, finger puppets, (some) hooded towels, and the wall art are going to show up there. 

Just a few last minute things to finish...

So Many Brandt's Boulevards! Poe, Scooby, and Star Wars

I teased this a few weeks ago, and here it is - the mega wallet post! So many fun wallets made from the same pattern, the Brandt's Boulevard from ChrisW designs! I love how the different fabrics make it a totally different wallet! Each wallet really deserves a separate post, but there are only so many pictures you can take of a wallet before it gets boring...


I can't decide if the 'no' background actually looks better or not. I really need to work on my picture setup!
