The Clock is Ticking

For the past several days I have been trying to find my desk. I know once I get it cleared off, I will be able to start sewing again. It has been pilled up with new orders coming in, new fabrics, and I have had to totally rework my small space to fit them all. Computer work and getting caught up on general business stuff has kept my itching fingers away from my new fabric collection.... BUT, I have finally decided on what fabrics I am planning to use for a diaper bag. After long debate back and forth (mostly with myself) I opted to go with a more "grown up" diaper bag rather than a boy or girl specific bag... after all, I will be the one carrying it most of the time, right? I tried to imagine me wearing a bright pink or purple shirt (two of my fav's to wear) with a red fire trucks diaper bag... somehow it didn't work in my head. So here is a preview of the fabric that I picked. It may be a little "girly", but I thought the dark blue and green would be nice even if we have a boy.

Don't you just love those sewing pins? A customer of mine recently sent them to me and I think they are just as adorable as can be... Thank you, Kathrin! Another friend gave me this felted pin cushion for Christmas. (Note: People seem to know me well enough to give me things to create with... perhaps it is a hint to sew more.) Fanks P! (that's "thank you" in three year old niece talk)

Well, since I have less than two months to get everything sewn that I can possibly finish, I don't have much time. So....
