Work in Progress Wednesday - Workus Interruptus

I worked on a few things today. Metalwork, housework, Mamawork (that means I did puzzles with my daughter).   Metalworkwise, I knocked out a bunch of  pendants that will be part of a holiday giveaway promotion (more on that later).  


In progress
 Ok, I'll give you a sneak peek

Workus Interruptus
Working away...

All that good work was interrupted when I had the sudden realization that today is Wednesday (I never know what day it is. With my self-employed schedule, every day seems like it could be a Monday or a Friday).  I came to the rude realization that the preschool Halloween party is in 2 short days. Uhhh, wasn't I intending to be Martha Stewartish and sew a costume? 2 days, right? No worries!  I am Superwoman (Superprocrastinatorwoman).  A quick jaunt to the fabric store and my problems will be solved.  Except that at 60% off all the Halloween fabrics were gone. Long story short: I was there for an hour, I scoured the store, I found some starry fabric in the the quilting section (good enough), and I was off.



Ready. Set. Sew!

You reminded me of quite a few years ago when my oldest son was 4. I purchased material for a wizard costume. I did not have a pattern and I started the costume the evening of the 30th. I was finished at 3am the next morning. It came out great, hat and all. I know your daughters costume will be fabulous!
