WIP Wednesday - Where Did May Go?

I'm pretty sure the month just started and we're already at the end...my kids are excited because they are almost done with school but I can't figure out where the time went!  I am getting stuff done, but it IS Spring, which means that the yard needs attention (wilderness neglect is a style, right?) and I feel like I should be doing some spring cleaning...but I'm sure the urge to clean will pass if I keep sewing. ;)

Some of the magic finished last week

Star Wars Strapfield (ChrisW Designs)

I really like the new idea that instead of just one Star Wars day (or 2 if you count Revenge of the 5th/6th), we go with "This is the May (way)" so in that spirit, here's another fun purse!

The front pockets look like jean pockets to me...and they are much deeper than most women's pants pockets!

WIP Monday - Plodding Along

When I started thinking of what I'd be able to update last week, I was a little sad because it seems like I didn't get that much finished...but then I remembered I made myself a purse that wasn't even on the list, so obviously I needed to add it on and then I could cross it off!   Crossing things off the list makes me happy.

I love this pirate ship zipper and my night mare zipper tape!

WIP Thursday - Week, Interrupted

This week has felt like it was made up of all Mondays, probably due to the fact that I took time off Tuesday to drive ALL DAY to and from the college for my oldest.  I'm still recovering from that, so not a lot is getting finished this week, so far. 

Next project in progress!

Porgs Pegasus (XOXO by Lauren)

 It's May the 4th Be With You day, aka Star Wars day, so obviously I need to share at least one fun Star Wars inspired purse!  This one was a quick and super cute purse, and I even had a little help from a model!

Those Porg seem to get into everything

WIP Thursday - Wi-fi Enabled

Yesterday I got my second vaccine shot, so I'm hoping that this is the one where the microchip boosts my wi-fi! ;) Everyone I know that is already through it had at least 24 hours of feeling bleh, so I've been trying to bust out as many of the orders as I could in the last 3 weeks...I just have one more rush order to finish by the start of next week, then I'll be back on track with regular orders.   I did sneak in a fun project last night, vax card holders! Now I need to whip up a bunch and get them listed on etsy!


Must resist the urge to make 20 million options available...

The Experiment Kelley Wallet - Moon Beam Textiles (Sew Modern Bags)

 This is such a fun pattern, and so fast! The Kelley Wallet from Sew Modern Bags was a last minute sneak in project for my Moon Beam Textiles strike fabric.  I was able to whip one up in an afternoon, so I should probably sneak in a few extra to add to Etsy, right?

My new model
