WIP Wednesday - Sukie Style

Hey everyone, Lee's decided to taking a little well-deserved R&R from WIP Wednesdays this summer, and today I'm up to bat as this week's guest host.

Here's a tiny intro, if you don't know me:
Real name - Amy (I like to go by sukie because there are just too many Amys in the sewing community) 
Here's a link to my blog
I've been sewing for a little over 2 years
Married 
Two kids (Pepper, 2, and Lucas, 13) 

I officially met Lee at Sewing Summit last year and we've been chatting with each other ever since.  I credit her for taking one of the best profile pictures I have out there:

Everyone in the sewing community has WIPs right? Yeah, so here's a little glimpse into my world and what I'm working on.

First off, I'm trying harder to be better organized ... meaning I have a notepad portfolio that holds a planner, notepad, and pen.  This is "suppose" to keep me from over committing to projects and it's small enough to keep in my purse.  I really tried to go to my phone for keeping dates and things but I must be hella ole' skool cause I'd rather do the caveman method and write it down.

Another thing I do is try to keep my WIPs in one bin ... and when I say "try," I really mean it—ha!  

I keep each project in ziplock baggies so I'm not losing pieces here and there.  Bigger projects like finished blocks, I just keep in the tote.

So what's taking my attention this week?  Well, I'm working on my Sophia bag for Purse Palooza. Make the bag and review the pattern ... that's not hard, right?  Yeah, I've only made one other bag in my life—eek!  But so far the cut outs look so promising, right? (sarcasm)

I've got 20 bee blocks to make ... um, yeah, that's insane ... 

Gotta finish quilting my Prince Joel Small Plates quilt ... 

My Dresden Challenge quilt needs a back and then I'm sending it off to get quilted ...

Gotta put together my Carpenter's Star quilt (tutorial can be found here) ... 

Yeah, I don't over commit at all! So what are ya'll working on this week??

Now it's your turn to link up! Here are the rules:

1. Link up any post from the past week that features at least one unfinished work-in-progress (WIP)
2. Somewhere in your post, link back here to my blog. (Or grab my WIP Wednesday button for your sidebar.)
3. Comment on at least a few of the other links—because what fun is a linky party without comments?
