Crazy with the WIPs

Hey everyone, after having been quiet for long time, just wanna share some of my wips during those lazy days ha ha ha I admit I have been lazy to write something on my blog for quite a while because I am still stress and had been in the the rock bottom I guess, but hey! I am not here to talk about that stressing matters :). I am here to share the story about my never ending wips ha ha the problem is, when I got bored with the wip I am working on, I tend to start another one and then when I see something new, I start another then work with them simultaneously, yes been crazy lately but hey! at least I can be at peace during those times working on those wips and have a break from the stressful things in my mind.. As I always say "crocheting keeps me calm" :)
Anyways, here are the pics of my so called "work in progress or as we call it WIPs :)

I started with this spike stitch, was going to make a bag but I was bored of it & up to now still has the same size/lenght and still haven't find the mood to continue it.

From the spike stitch bag I  made another one this time I planned to make a purse but ended up as a hook case :)

Then I start a new wip which is a crocodile stitch purse up to now I haven't finish it as I am thinking if I put a long sling or just a wrist wrap and put a zipper or just a snap ??? , in here is my nephew wearing it as a beanie :) 

While thinking what to do with the croc purse I started a C2C blanket..

made a head band,

a coin purse,

made a shrug following a tutorial video.

also finished a bag  also following a video tutorial.

Then I won a yarn and tried making a summer top but alas! the yarn isn't enough. I have to de-frog the lower part and think of something else I can do and while  thinking of it...

I made this cute yummy cotton candy new born beanie,

followed by this cotton candy baby dress...

then made another croc purse but yarn ran out and it is supposed to be a phone casing but the customer wants purse like so she can put both her 2 phones inside..

so I tried making a new one, this time using a thread yarn, hopefully she'll like it.

while having a break with the croc purse made this strawberry bag :)

Then the meet and greet crochet for a cause is near and we have to bring some hats so I made these..

after the meet and greet they gave us some yarn to bring home and make some more hats and baby shoes to be donated to the orphanage. I never thought I could make these baby shoes, well I really don't feel like making it because it's too small and you know my patience ha ha ha but after seeing others made it and their works are so cute I sat down and work on it..et voila!

 and I also made these hats except the brown one, that was my sister's first project..YAY! so proud  teaching her.

.While having a little break from those baby shoes and hats for the orphanage... I deided to make my own hat and here it is, I will post the pattern here tomorrow:)

So that's my journey to the never ending WIPs,at least I finished some :)
  I still have some few wips that I haven't put there but didn't want you to be bored with my wips ha ha ha

Have a wonderful and blessed day everyone

Keep on smiling :)
