Some progress

On the swimsuit front:

 

I chose a LMB bikini pattern and cut it.

On the yellow jacket front:

 

Almost done!

I made two funny buttons to embellish it.

Then, I also finished a pair of pink linen pants, a lovely white top and refashioned the flowery nightgown. Phew. But the camera didn't want to collaborate. Ehm, yeah, the battery was empty. Took me some time to realize it.

With all the chat going on over at the Self Stitched September Flickr group (Check it out!!!) about keeping track and organizing one's fabric stash I've got the idea to make a list of my UFOs and WIPs. Gave up pretty quickly. Too many of them scattered around the house. I managed to put them all in one place, though. More luck tomorrow. Hopefully. Maybe.I have to bake some cakes first.

Do you have many UFOs and WIPs? Where do you keep them? Do you feel overwhelmed by the number of them?

How did you make those buttons? With a polymer clay? They're fabulous :)

Yes, Amy, it's Fimo.

Very cool. I'm going to have to try that!

Back to your original question...I don't have very many WIP's, but I keep those projects in plastic bags in a box next to my sewing machine. I also have a couple of partially completed things hanging from a hook on the back of my sewing room door :) Even though I don't have that much on the go, I do occasionally feel overwhelmed by the number of ideas for projects I have percolating in my head.
