Sewing Projects

So, I've recently started up sewing, using my little-bitty $20 Walmart-Special sewing machine.  It's a good little machine, but it is lacking in a few things.  Like the ability to do more than one type of stitch.  Right now I'd kill to be able to do a zig-zag stitch.

That aside, I've taken on way too many projects lately.  I'm currently doing the following:

• Scrabble quilt as a Christmas gift for my Mom
• Apron for my Boy (due next Tuesday OMG)
• Shorts and tank pj set for myself (mostly done, but needs lace on the shorts and straps on the tank)
• Final touch-ups on my hoody (probably an hour worth of hand sewing EW)
• Denim and lace clutch bag for Christmas gift for cousin
• Possibly about a bajillion chip-bag change purses for Christmas gifts (http://guaya.wordpress.com/2009/05/23/chips-coin-purse-recycle/)
• T-shirt reconstruction that just needs the sleeves hemmed and one more piece attached.

Oh my goodness.  *facepalm*  I plan to get the apron done tonight.  Maybe.  *stress.  The quilt?  I've never made a quilt before.  What the heck am I doing?!  But it seems to be going smoothly.  For the most part.  ;)
