Joining the Friday Night Sew-in is a way of setting some time aside to work on those projects on your to do list. And remember - it doesn't have to be a sewing project.. maybe you have a knitting project.. or some scrapbooking.. it could be anything.
So, join Bobbi and I Friday January 15th for our monthly Sew-In.
Here are the "rules".
1. Enter your blog info below.
2. Make a post on your blog - letting all your readers know about the sew-in. Spread the word.. we could all use the virtual sewing support and encouragement.
3. On Friday – 01/15/10 - Get your house settled, put on your comfy jammies.. maybe make a cup of tea.. and sit down to work on some of those projects (or anything else that you want to work on).
4. Then, sometime on Saturday - Make a post about what you worked on.. show us a picture or two.
5. Optional.. grab the "Friday Night Sew-In" Button on the right for your own blog!
And finally - on Sunday 1/17, we will enter all participants into a GIVEAWAY for something fun! Maybe some fabric.. or a sewing gadget or two.

This sounds like fun, thank you so much for organising
Hi,
What a funny thing to do, and I don't have to get out of the house!
Happy New Year!
This looks really fun! And if I enter it, then I have a PERFECT excuse to do nothing but sew!
Thanks Heidi. I am all signed up and I've posted about it on my blog. Now to decide what to do, what to do :-)
Second time I have joined... hope it works this time.. I am now #18 last time I was about #6.. don't know what went wrong... Looking forward to starting on this....

oooh, I love this. Check my post today about creative community - you're doing it!! Way to go. I can't make this one (I'll be setting up the hall for a retreat the next day - my creative community!), but I'll be watching for the next one definitely. Have fun girls!
What a great idea!! I'm putting your button on my blog right now!! Polly :-)
This sounds like fun, thank you for doing this!

My first sew in! YAY! Thanks for hosting!
Sounds like fun.
Yippeee!!! It's gonna be great!
So many projects that could be worked on. I'll join in, now just need to figure out what I'll be working on. Thanks ladies.
This is such a great idea. I am happy to join in and will be sure to post pics. I will be in a hotel so I am hoping I wont have any problems uploading pics.
I'll give this a go - just need to get it on my calendar ;^)
Was wondering do we have to have a blog to play? I have one but haven't updated it in months. Takes too much time away from my quilting so I gave it up. Would like to still participate though. Can I post it on my FB page?
This sounds like some fun!! Will put the button on my blog to keep this brain working properly.
Cool! Sounds like fun!
I'll have my jammies on and my camera handy - let the sewing begin.
@ imagrandma2five - You can participate without a blog - it's just nice to see what everyone works on.
Fantastic idea!!! This should be FUN!
Oh this is great! It fits right in with my New Year's resolution to sew a little every day; now I have reason to sew an entire evening! I can't wait!
I'll be there or is it here?LOL Either way, count me in on the great fun. I have grabbed your badge for my blog and posted about this fun event!
Sounds like fun! I'm in.
I got so far behind on my 2009 items that I love this idea!! Got a couple friends who might be joining me!
Thank you!!!
Stacy
And, because Monday 1/18 is Martin Luther King Day, that makes it a great way to start a long weekend!!!!
What a great idea, thanks for hosting it. I'm in and have blogged about it.
This should be fun. Looking forward to it.
Oh that sounds like a lot of fun!!!!
Kristie

I'm in! Button on, blog posted, now what to do...
what a great turn out!!! heidi and i started virtually sewing together via our cell phones last summer....being 240 miles away from each other. we decided to make it a "date" night for sewing. we are both SOOO glad everyone is excited!
I am new to crazyquilting so this is the first time I have entered anything. I look forward to being a part of this sew-in. I found my way here through Ann Flowers. Sorry about my name being down twice, I put the wrong blog address the first time!
Just checking in to see if there is anything new to get ready for Friday night. I too have got the button on and blog posted. Hoping you have a great weekend!
Sounds like fun! Putting the button on my blog now! Thanks for hosting!
Libby
This sounds like fun! I'm in.
I need a motivator. I think I'll enjoy this. Button going on blog if I know how!
Hallo Heidi, can`t wait till friday!
This sounds like fun! But.. umm.. I sorta doubt that I will EVER have the house all settled! Always comings and goings here! But they can just come and go around my quilting time. :)
I'm a newbie here but can't wait to be part of the fun. I've grabbed the button and will post tomorrow!
fun! what else would a quilter be doing on a Friday night?
I will be joining to the extent that I can. Wednesday I have surgery on my arm and if I'm up to it I might work on folding stash
Thanks Bobbi and Heidi, I've sign-in, and will post about it on my blog with the logo - Hugs Nat
I don't have a blog, but would like to sew along!
Sunny
Thanks Heidi, I grabbed your button and I'm looking forward to the sew-in - I will bring cookies. : D

Looking forward to a Fun Friday Night!!
Thanks Heidi, First time here, I have posted and linked - Cant wait for friday night. Janey-UK.
I have been cutting all weekend and still have more. My shoulder is tired. I have quilters shoulder.
I can't wait to start. My husband has even agreed to take the kids out of the house on Saturday Yeah.
Hi Heidi, this is just what I have been looking for, thank you for organising this, looking forward to Friday!
I'm with ya! I'll be working on an applique block :)
Thanks so much for hosting this. What a great idea.

Sue

Great idea! I'm in.

This is great! I'll be there :)
Yippee, the date works out perfect.
lol...at Vicki's blog I made a comment wishing that I could jet to her house and land in her backyard for a Friday night sew-in...not realizing that it is an online sew-in; great! I'm sewing-in...no problem!

Pam
ohhhhh, this will be fun! Cannot wait to see what everyone gets accomplished!
Great idea! I added my name and posted your link on my blog. Let the sewing begin
This is a great idea! Found you at Fiberphile's blog.
Late but not too late I'll join in this fun!
Dagmar from Germany
Hope I'm not too late either, but I just wasn't sure if I'd be able to participate. But yay me, I can!!! Looking forward to it!!
I'm scrambling to jump on the band wagon at the last minute as well!! Will be a fun time for all.
I don't have a blog either but I have a Flickr page so hopefully that will work! Thanks for organizing this.
Kim twisted my arm...LOL This should be fun!
Sounds like fun. I was planning on sewing tonight anyway. Can't wait to see what others will be making. I will post button on my blog. Thanks for hosting.
ok, I think I did the sign up properly this time, I accidently went down too far LOL.
I'm ready!
I think I just sneaked in under the wire! My friend Edna sent me... and heaven knows I've got plenty of ongoing projects to choose from!
This is a great idea! I'm ready to quilt!
Well, I'am here having fun with the rest of you. I'am in my jammies and have been working on a quilt. I will be posting photos of what I have been doing on my blog: http://quiltingcanbefun.blogspot.com
This is so much fun Heidi. I have to watch little Muffin with your kitty Biscuit. We don't want them fighting. LOL I think they will get along for this sew in tonight, don't you? Well, going to go have a cup of hot tea, and relax with Muffin. Then I will be getting back to my sewing. See everybody later. Have fun. It's just great being with Heidi and Bobbi for this Sew-In.
See you guys.
I posted my progress for the night. It wasn't what I was planning, but I like what I did, :)
I put the "Friday Night Sew-in" on my blog and then I thought "What if I don't actually SEW on Friday night?" so I didn't sign up. Then on Saturday I realized that I DID sew and had a post on my blog on Friday, too. So, well, anyway, now I'm joining. It seems I do some form of sewing, planning, etc. every day.
Thanks for this group "sew-in".
Linda
Going to try this Friday night Sew In. I just saw this, better late than never
