Bobbi and I are hosting another Friday Night Sew-In on July 23rd! Sign ups are finally here!! Are you pumped??!!
If you are in the "summer sewing slump" then this is the perfect opportunity for you to get motivated!
Most of you already know the drill.. but for any newbies out there.. here is how it works.
1. Enter your blog info below. **If you don't have a blog - you can enter the Flickr group link as your URL.
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 – 07/23/10 - 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.. maybe you want to knit.. or catch up on scrapbooking).
4. Then, sometime on Saturday - Make a post about what you worked on.. show us a picture or two on Flickr.
And finally - on Sunday 7/25, we will enter all participants into a GIVEAWAY for something fun! Maybe some fabric.. or a sewing gadget or two. Bobbi and I both pick winners - so you each will have 2 chances to win!!

Love to have a reason to sew. As if I need one.
Looking forward to spending time on my daughters baby clothes quilt.
Looking forward to it.
Phooey for me, can't play this month as I will be out of town. Have fun though!
Going to try to get something more done this time.
I've marked the calendar!
Great idea and I need to be motivated! Looking forward to this.
I have a project in mind! I've been cutting out the fabric for my next Quilters Academy lesson. Friday night will be the perfect time to get it sewn up. Thanks!
Hi,
Last Friday Night Sew In I was not feeling weel, but I'm ready for this one!
Manuela
sounds like a plan!
What a great idea. Wish I would have thought of it.

I've signed up--that's my birthday and unless something really exciting comes up, I can't think of a better way to spend it!
All right, I'm ready and I'll be there to sew, sew, sew! Have a great weekend.

Bummer! That's the fourth Friday. I'll be at church camp that week.
Have to catch August maybe, but then again I think we will be on family vacation the third Friday in aug. Oh, well. Have fun.
DD is sewing gauchos today for camp.

My sewing room is finally back up and running, and that's the first night FH is out of town for 2 whole weeks...I'm so in!!!
In again! If I keep playing I've got to finally hit a Friday Night Sew-In where I actually achieve something :).
Thanks for hosting.
Have missed the last few months....hopefully July will work out!!
A bit excited as this will be my first sew in!
this will be my first sew in too!. I finially have a Friday night free and I have sewing I need to get done. will blog about it after work today. Yeah.
Been with ya from the start. Looks like my number is 75 this time. I have churn dash blocks to work on!
I'm really hopping to join in this time. We've just moved interstate (2 weeks ago) & I haven't had a chance to sew for ages because I've been so busy sorting & packing. Not sure what I'll work on yet. :-) cheers, Jan in Oz
I've been promising myself for three months I'm going to join in- and this month I've decided to just bite the bullet and go for it.
Thanks for hosting. Cant wait to check out all the craftiness that results!
My third time. I keep trying for every month but it just doesn't happen. Hope I have better luck than last time, when "friday night sewin" became friday night unpickin'. LOL
This will be my first time can't wait till next Friday!
My first time - I was inspired by Debbie to take part and get some projects finished :-)
I am looking forward to joining everyone for July's Friday Nite Sew-In.
Can't wait!
I'm in. This will be fun. I love sewing in my jammies!
It's such a small, comfy world this internet stitching club thing!!
My husband will be joining this sew-in also.
Sounds like fun, I'm glad I found you!
This is an awesome idea! Thanks. And Thank you CJ for posting this on your facebook page!
This sounds great-- Never been a part of something like this before --I'm ready though---what fun!!
I'll be here (or there!) with bells on!
Nancy
Ok - I'm in the day job is over for now, so I'm hoping I don't have any late afternoon calls - I have my project ready and waiting and it needs to be finished!
Thanks for hosting again.
I missed last month, and I need some MAJOR motivation! See ya Friday Night!
I've had zero quilting motivation for the last few weeks! Can't wait to force myself to work on something and get some quilting done.
I'm determined to ignore EVERYTHING and sit my rear end down in front of my sewing machine on Friday night and GET SOME SEWING DONE !!!! ..... and you all have my permission to give me the kick in the butt that I need !!!!! :)
Looking forward to getting something done!
Ok, my first Friday Night Sew In!! This sounds perfect to me. I'm working on a couple little mini quilts for my cat (long story) so hopefully I'll finish those, but I also really want to start to play around with making some fabric covered greeting cards. yay!
Just heard about this tonight. Maybe this will get me going.
i'll be there.
I'm in. I don't know what I'm going to work on, but I'll be there.
I missed the last two Friday Night Sew-in - and I haven't been sewing for weeks - so I need a push. I'm not quite sure what to do; may be do a little progress on a Log Cabin quilt. I'm really looking forward to the evening.
Fun! I hope to get something done!
Whew - just made it - I'm in!!
I hadn't been signing up for the last few and guess what?!! I was home sewing! SO...I'm signing up for the fun filled evening of virtual stitching with friends!!
Just what I need to motivate me again to work on some projects I've pushed into the corner!
Looking forward to joining in for the first time. Thanks for hosting!
I'm late to the party...only heard about this today. But you can count me in.
Never done a Friday Night Sew In but I need some "sew" time. What better way than with some fellow enthusiasts?
Thank you.
Oh I am sew in!!

It is going to be hotter than blue blazes up in my studio but I am ready to sew tonight! I am finally going to get the borders on a quilt I have been working on for 2 years. I also have several purses and totes that I need for customer's orders so I have plenty to do!
Looking forward to this!
This is going to be great for me, as I am here by myself every Friday evening. Now I have something fun to do! Hugs Morgan
This looks like so much fun, the perfect excuse to sit at my sewing machine all night!
I'm in - never played along before so I thought I would this time. I'm really excited! :-)
I'm a last minute sign up because I wasn't sure if I would have time this weekend, as it is a holiday in Utah. But, it looks like I can sneak a little in--so I'm in.
Starting with a class at the quilt shop from 7-9, then I'll be home finishing up the Beach Tote from Tuesday's class.
I get out at 6:30! but I'll sew the moment I get home--I'mmoving in 3 weeks and I'm trying to finish as many projects as I can before I have to pack up quilting stuffs and move across the country!
My first time to join in! SO excited!!!
So exciting! This is my first time joining the sew in, but I already know exactly what I am going to work on!
Okay, gonna a do it tonight, I am looking forward to just sewing a bit!
OK, I missed the last couple of FNS, but I'm in for tonight!
Woo hoo. I'm a newbie and haven't participated before. Can't wait to get home, in my jammies and sew!!
I'm set to go as soon as I get home.
I'm a "virgin" on this, too, but I'm ready to play! Time for comfy pants and snacks!
Okay, I'm new to this, but I'm looking forward to tucking in the kids and working on some skirts for a fundraiser! What a great idea!
I've missed the last few, and am ready to finish my husband's quilt tonight! :)
I'd like to participate!
Looking forward to a fun filled Friday night :)
I think I'm ready, I've missed the last couple and have plenty to work on. Thanks ladies!
this will be fun. Nothing like a little Friday night sewing!
Hope I am not too late. I missed the last one.
I am busy quilting a little Schnibbles.
Thanks!
I am here! And the sewing machine is humming!
Another newbie here! I have some hst I need make tonight as well as work on a birthday present for my niece. (Her b-day was last Sat...oops!)
Whew! Thought I wasn't going to make it tonight. Ready...set...go...
oops! that was supposed to be ready...set...sew...
I'm working on my 3x6 Bee Blocks! :)
Well, I am unable to sew on machine due to knee surgery but since I am a hand appliquer I have plenty of sewing waiting for me! I will be attaching my vines, leaves and berries on the borders of my Jo Morton Warm Wishes for Christmas quilt. Then, when I can machine sew again, they will be attached! Help me to feel a Christmas chill today, as we are suppose to have heat index of 110 degrees!!! Yikes!!! Looking forward to seeing everyone's projects!
Forget to leave a comment yesterday! I would like to join the sew in! I finished up last night and will post today!
Well, my first Sew In and I'm glad I participated!!!! I got something done, yeah! My post and my pictures are up on my blog http://quiltedinspirations.blogspot.com/ for all to see. I'm anxious to finish it with fun appliqué using my AccuCut machine and dies. Looking forward to seeing what all of you got done. What Fun!!!!
I had a great time and I got plenty done even if it wasn't much in the way of sewing.
Thanks Bobbi and Heidi.
