Friday Night Sew In Signup is finally here!!

For some reason I thought I still had another week before the FNSI. I started the new job...it's going well but my house is upside down and laundry is piling up. I desperately need to get my "workin mom groove" back!!

So let's get signed up ladies!! It's this Friday the 22nd.

If you are new, click the Friday Night Sew In tab above for details on how it works. Otherwise add your name below and commit to some sewing!!

    I've been deep cleaning my sewing room, so this will be the motivation to get it finished, so I can sew along.

    This will be interesting as I have a market stall on Saturday and need to be set up by 7.30am. Lol, guess I can do a Thursday night sew in or a Friday afternoon one instead :).

    I still need to decide what I'm going to work on, maybe something quick that can be finished that evening.

    Glad to hear the new job is going well. You'll get things organized... it just takes a bit of time to get adjusted.

    Heidi, I do hope that you are planning on taking time to sew along with us all. I know all to well how work takes away from sewing time. That is why I so look forward to FNSI. Once I sign up, I feel committed to sew something, even if it isn't much, just so that I spend time stitching something.
    I look forward to seeing what you and everyone else works on this Friday night.

  40. LarissaJuly 20, 2011 at 8:11 AM

    I was wondering when the linky sign up would go up - life does go quickly!!
    I actually though last week was FNSI, as the 1st was a Friday, though I realised mid last week that it was this week.
    I'm looking forward to it, though I am thinking I will probably get the bulk of my sewing done in the morning or afternoon. So far I haven't gotten much chance the last two months, though I have successfully been getting lots of sewing done lately, so I know I'm going to have success this time!

  41. And this would be . . . . July 20, 2011 at 8:17 AM

    I thought it was last week and somehow I had missed it. Then when NO ONE posted about it, I realized that maybe it would be this week. THANKS!

    It has been too long since any sewing has been going on in "the pit" and hope FNSI will inspire me to get going. Daughter in law has borrowed my camera so won't be able to post pictures until I go and "borrow" it back.

    I am so looking forward to Friday Night's Sew In! It seems I can begin, and progress a project - I just can't allow it to be complete - then I'll never get to work on it again! Or worse, I'll give it away and never see it again! So, I have quite a few projects at the end stage. I'd like to get them past the finish line. Looking foward to it! Becky at bngwingo@yahoo.com

    Plenty of things to get done here - FNSI is just the thing to get me organised.
    Look forward to seeing you there.
    The new job thing certainly takes some getting used to - hope you find the groove soon.
    And my word verification is 'comence', guess it is trying to tell me something.

    A few years ago I was doing binding a book with a Regency theme and came across Barbara Brackman's Hartfield fabric in teal green. One of the people who really admired the book, and the fabric has just been diagnosed with a terminal brain tumor. Our community of friends is making her a quilt. I'd love to use that fabric for my square. However, I can't find a fat quarter anywhere on the net. I have contacted several online retailers, one searched 200 stores.
    I am reaching out to quilters, would someone be willing to sell me a fat quarter of Hartfield in teal green. If so, please contact me at fseddon at gmail dot com
