2018 Finish Along

Oh god, I have so many projects! And it feels like every time I do one of these lists, it gets longer and more scruffy!

1. Star Wars zip up tray pouch - oh my god I will do this! I swear! I mean I'll probably sell it, but I swear I will!
2. Teal ponte cardigan - it's been moved downstairs so I can actually cut it out.
3. Makers Tote - due to an interfacing issue, this is now a birthday present, but it's currently the project on the go, so it will be done!
4. Pink sparrow Heidi clutch - this is going on etsy, I just need to finish the bloody thing!
5. Hitchhiker take 2 - this is nearly done. It's just been shoved somewhere.
6. Unicorn embroidery pouch - this is pissing me off as the design has rubbed off and I can't easily retrace it. A labour of "oh god I will get this done"
7. Meeple cushions - they will be done! The red one has been stolen by my friend's cat, so I ought to make the rest.
8. Sprite's Fen shawl - this is getting huge and annoying, but I'm 50% through the pattern in terms of yarn, and only have about 2 pages of pattern left.


9. Vila shawl - making good progress

10. Astra mitts - first one is cast on. I just need to not wait a year between finishing the first and casting on the second!

11. Astra cowl - sitting waiting for the mitts to be finished
12. The #stitchedsewingorganizerssal - am I allowed to count this? Who knows? (I don't actually mind if I'm not, but it's going on the list as I want to make at least one of each project... I'm already really behind)
13. Aneela Hoey Triple Pouch - this is separate from the SAL, as it's already cut, as it's a gift. I've just run out of the right colour zips!
14. Aneela Hoey Fold Up Sewing Folio - again, separate from the SAL. Fabric is pulled, and it's a birthday present, it just got shoved to the back of the queue while other things needed doing.


And there's a bunch of other stuff. I've got 3 shawls worth of yarn pulled with patterns ready to wind and knit, I've got lots of sewing projects I want to crack on with, and I want to get on with some costuming.

And you might notice some bits are missing; I finished a couple of things at the end of the year that I couldn't be bothered to blog. If you're following my Instagram you'll have seen them though!

Some random things

    So I'm currently faffing around at work, waiting for a meeting that might not happen and trying no to go mad with the current project I'm working on (pro tip: don't make the English graduate computerise the electrical drawings. bad things happen) My pretty fabric for my post xmas present sewing showed up at work on Friday (when I was off doing xmas shopping in MK) so I didn't get it until today. It's so pretty! And I managed some impressive colour matching given I was working on my not very well calibrated work monitor! This is going to be tucked away until I'm done, so I'm not tempted before I'm done with presents.   I posted the other night about how much I love my seam ripper (there was an issue with squid, which will be covered in a post later when I can get all the photos in the right order, so, when I get home) and someone asked what it was, so I took this to illustrate the point. It sees a fair amount of use, and this weekend

Finish-a-long Quarter 2

Life, being what it is, I never signed up for Quarter 1. I didn't have a huge number of projects on the go, and I was not in a great place. But things are looking up now. And up, and up, if you're looking at the stack of unfinished projects, so without further ago, I present the list of stuff I would like to finish this quarter...

Xmas present 3 - the squid

 This was the big one. The one that was going to the person whose opinion as a crafter I care about, and a person who has had a bit of a rough year. Thankfully, by some miracle, it all came together, although this was NOT without disasters.
