What an exciting and awesome Friday Night Sew-in that we had this month. We had 151 people all across the WORLD sewing "together". Can I get a WHAAHOOOO!!!
And - Bobbi and I are excited to celebrate our ONE YEAR FNSI Anniversary this month. As you may have noticed the past few months - the giveaways always include a pincushion. So, Bobbi created our signature Scrappy FNSI Pincushion that we are unveiling this month. Way to go Bobbi!!!
We are also including a charm pack of "12 Days of Christmas" by Kate Spain to the lucky winners. It is our Christmas in July theme.. that happened quite by accident. But hey.. it works!
Now for the good stuff - the lucky winner over here - using Random.org is Jamie from over at Modified Mix. Congrats Jamie. Send me your address and we can get your package off to you.
And now I must show you my "results" from Friday Night. It was a flop.. and I was so bummed about it.
I sat down.. so eager to sew.. I was going to make a little dress for the new little girl living in our house. I got my strips all laid out.. I opened the package of onsies.. and realized I accidently bought 12 mth size rather than 18mth. Arrgghhh..
So then I started playing with my fabric for the July Quilters Bee block - but didn't get very far. It is a spider web block - I'm excited to make one for the first time.. but it didn't happen.
Basically - it was a bust. The wind was out of my sails.. we've all been there.
And now I'm off for a week - visiting my parents. Enjoying my Mom - she's teaching me to "double knit".. I'll let you know how that goes. We've tried before and I gave up. I was much younger and not as patient back then. I'll let you know.
Don't forget to go on over to http://www.craftyvegasmom.blogspot.com/ to see who won over there.. it could be you!!
