Welcome back to Don't Run With Scissors! ✂️🧵

So... **Annihilation August may need to have 57 days.** 😂

No finishes this week, but that doesn't mean nothing happened!

🎃 **Purple Pumpkin** — progress!

**Quaker Flag** — more stitches in and we're getting closer!

🛍️ **A tiny bit of haul** — just TWO things. That barely even counts, right?

👗 **Dress anxiety** — because apparently finding something to wear to a formal wedding is now one of my full-time jobs. 😫

And we're taking a look at where things stand as we head toward the end of Annihilation August. Five finishes so far is nothing to complain about... but there are definitely a few more WIPs I'd really like to annihilate before August's completely legitimate 57th day. 😂

💬 **Tell me in the comments:** Should Annihilation August officially have 57 days? And what WIP are YOU trying to get finished before the end of the month?
