WIP overlaod

Heck, I have totally forgotten to share a few sneaks of my latest WIP's with you...and there are quite a few around in my house right now :)
See, I can't just work on one project, especially when it is a long WIP, such as {{Bluey}}. I am missing the last third before I can start the edging, but it gets boring after a while, so I need some other projects to keep my interest going.

First I took the same pattern as I am using for the above blanket, but altered it a bit and I am turning this into something other than a blanket. I am making this project up as I go along, no instructions - so you will have to wait and see what it turns into - any guesses?
And then I started on another pillow case for the front room, which some totally lush {{Paton's Smoothie}} yarn. How wonderful is that to crochet with? So soft....
And last but by no means least, I have started to learn to do {{Bavarian Crochet}}. It looks fabulous and initially I found it a little tricky (probably also because the instructions are in US crochet-lingo), but I think I got the hang of it now. Here is the the first part.

    ooh loving Bluey - is that Wisteria, block 189 by chance? I just today finished hooking up 4 for the centre panel of a blanket I'm making for a friend!! Can't wait to see what you turn the coffee coloured one into... a shawl/wrap maybe? x

    Awesome stuff, Kim! You just amaze me! I'm gonna guess that your mystery project is a slouchy shoulder bag. :)
