What's been keeping me sew busy?

From the mundane to the whoa!, I've been sewing, sewing, sewing!
Here's a taste of what I've been up to for the last few weeks.....at least the stuff I haven't already blogged about! LOL

First, the mundane......sewing a patch on a gi.......freakazodially heavyweight cotton.
Thimbles are a good thing! :-)


Next, replacing a few buttons on a black pea coat that attracts 
white cat hair like an electromagnet on crack!


Pillowcases for the daughter...well loved!!


Hobo bag from a free web pattern for dot.......not so well loved. 
I may turn it into a giveaway. Just sayin....


Many mug rug for the hubster. He loves it!! Who knew?!


Apron for the mil....I think she likes it, I just don't know. It's from vintage 70's fabric...it's ''bad".


A Sock monkey with a heart tattoo for my brother. 
He dressed it in a Tennessee Titans cap....wrong, just sooooo wrong.


PJ pants for the boy.


Is it wrong that I took the time to match the plaid on jamjam bottoms? 
Probably, but it was a great place to practice that skill.


A Star Trek stocking for the worship pastor at church. 
He's a fan...not as nutty as me, but then, who is?
(Karen, yours is better. Amy, your emblem turned out better than mine)


Still working the wedding dress/corset. It should be complete by the end of next week!!



What's next????

Well, I found this fabric in my stash...I'm thinking it should be a scrubs top. 
Hey Deb, is it too much????
I know, it's wrong on sooo many levels but it's awesome fabric!
Sooooo, tell me whatcha want, whatcha really, really want!



And last, but not least........a sock cow. The local theater gave me a call and they needed a white sock monkey type cow for their current play. It WILL have an udder!!! 
I can't help myself. the nose and the udder will be the pink dots.



Oh look.......no pic here!!! LOL  I am in a pillowcases swap and I haven't picked my fabrics yet. 
It's red....I loves me some red!!!

Look out, I only have two weeks to get this stuff done and the threads and scraps will be a flyin'!

What's new with you out there in blogger land???
