This is......a work in progress

I'm almost too scared to post about works in progress...... there are lots of things that have been half finished and tucked away somewhere safe, never to be seen again.

I wandered around the house and only took photos of the works in progress that were easy to find.

WIP number 1 - pinky reddy scarf - knitting completed but I can't find the last ball of yarn to make tassels for the ends.

WIP number 2 - apron with hand stitched flowers. The hand stitching through the white vinyl became boring very quickly. I've only stitched 2 complete flowers so far.

WIP number 3 - Small bag for oxygen tubing - the bag is so small that I can't stitch the opening section together on the sewing machine - relegated to the hand sewing pile a few months ago.

WIP number 4 - toddler size bibs - I actually can't remember why I didn't finish these (obviously something far more exciting came along).

WIP number 5 - Baby size bibs - I still haven't completed these for a friend who had a baby two weeks ago. Another friend had another baby boy on Friday. I need to make more bibs pronto.

WIP number 6 - Baby bottle cover - this was the first prototype - I'm not happy with it - it was relegated to the 'try again after re-design' pile.

WIP number 7 - this is a handbag that I promised to make for my mum about 2 years ago. The outer is finished, the inner is finished (it even has the magnetic snap attached). All I need to do is to stitch the 2 layers together and add a strap. Maybe I should actually finish this one.

WIP number 8 - another scarf with the yarn that I bought from Clegs. One ball down, two balls to go.

WIP number 9 - This was part of my mosaics phase from about 5 years ago.

WIP number 10 - Also from my mosaics phase circa 2003.

WIP number 11 - Ditto 2003.

I'm sure I could find more if I searched a bit deeper!

Thanks to Debbie from Kept in a Jar for such an enlightening (or WIP load lightening) 'This is' theme this week. Head on over to visit Angela to see who else is playing along!
