Sewing projects that are heading my way

I went from being almost done to having a plate full.
I love it!!


I still need to finish quilting a quilt that has taken me far too long. Sometimes when you have a big project, you lose interest and need a break. I am betting two years was too long a break. LOL
The quilt is off the rack and all basted; I just need to get my machine in fabulous working order first. 




I also have a baby quilt top that could use some 'sandwiching' and quilting.



I am making some baby bibs and possibly a bath time apron or two for a friend's dot and dil baby showers. She's getting girls this time around!!








I am starting another wedding dress. A strapless bubble hem dress with a flowing, fluffy, grand, bridal-y over-skirt that will come off after the pics and the ceremony. It's the new thing...convertible bridal gowns.
The mullet of the bridal world....business on the top and a party underneath! LOL.







I also joined another apron swap. Like I don't have twenty already....but it's so much fun and I do LOVE me a good apron!!

And I have two felt weenie dog pincushions to get into the mail.

I am planning my 'Craft-it-Forward' projects too!

Last, but not least, I am joining  a jeans sew along May 2nd  It's been forever since I made pants and I've only ever made one fly front.  And jeans that fit.....OOOMMMMGGGGG.......... that sounds like a slice of heaven!

On the not sewing side of life....the boy's truck died (goodbye money) and I need to suck it up and finish the taxes and my pfaff needs to go in for a tune-up and timing adjustment so I can quilt the quilt (my little janome aqs probably could do it, but it's so small I don't want to fiddle with the fabric all that much..plus, the pfaff is all set up for free motion and junk)

What's on your creative agenda???? Do tell.................
