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.

Sarah C said...

I am excited. I was just thinking earlier today that maybe I had missed the sign-up for this month. Glad to know I didn't.

Quilter Mom of 3 said...

Really looking forward to working with you all in spirit on Friday night!!


Good luck to everyone...get in the groove & go with it.

LittleBook said...

Looking forward to it. Sorry things are so hot elsewhere, it is barely making 60 degrees here today and we are all wondering if summer is going to happen or not!

Deanna said...

I'm always up for a good sew-in, even on short notice. Thanks for sponsoring, even with your busy life.

Theresa said...

I had been wondering when the next one would be, I'm looking forward to some time on my sewing machine hopefully, I've plenty to do!

Vintage Cate said...

Welcome back Heidi. Glad your job is going well. If only the housework fairies had your address!
Looking forward to Friday Night stitching.

RobynLouise said...

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 :).
Cheers,
Robyn

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.

Katy Cameron said...

This will be my first time playing along, looking forward to it :o)

CathyC said...

I had a FNSI early on the 15th ;-)
this way I get two FNSI - win, win!

Rachel said...

Ahhhh...I wish! I would TOTALLY be in but I'll be in San Antonio, Texas (which is very far from my home in Edmonton and my sewing machine). Next time... Hope y'all have fun (trying to talk like a Texan...how am I doing?)

Dawn said...

I haven't participated in one of these for a while, but this week I'm free...so I'm in! I can't wait to see what everyone works on :)

Narelle said...

Gosh that came around quick this time ... better get something ready for stitching.

Patty said...

I won't have much time on Friday - my daughter and I are going to a Sound of Music sing-a-long but I will find some time! Thanks for hosting.

Nancy Lee said...

Looking forward to a night of sewing some lavender sachets with my peeps!

Mrs A said...

yay! I too thought i'd missed it, got a quilt to finish, should be a good night!

Donna Baker said...

having 5 Fridays probably throws everyone off. I am really looking forward to it - I NEED to sew!!

Jody Herbert said...

I'm looking forward to it! 'See' you there!

pamkennison said...

Hi Heidi, would love to join you

Cheers Pam

Janet said...

Yahoo! Hopefully this time I actually get to sew, unlike last time when the evening disappeared on me.

Anonymous said...

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.

The Vegetarian Hunter said...

FNSI Woot Woot!!

Cheryl said...

So excited...have my project ready to work on! Thanks for hosting Heidi. With all you have going on you still take care of us!!

Andrea @ Sew Divertimento said...

I'm excited! I'll still be on my Honeymoon on Friday, but I'm going to be doing some knitting (no sewing machine). We'll see how far I get in the car on Friday!
~Andrea

Amy said...

I'm happy to be joining you on Friday night! I have fabric for a new project set to arrive on Thursday, so I hope to get it done Friday night! :-)

Jess in Progress said...

Yay! My first FSNI as a mommy :) I'll be working on a special project to go in the nursery :)

Lis Harwood said...

Congratulations Jess in Progress. I'll be joining in on Friday, EPP, hooray.

Unknown said...

I have not done one of these for awhile soooooo looking forward to a night of bliss in the sewing room

Marg said...

Looking forward to it. I have so much on at the moment and another busy weekend coming up, but I'm determined to get some sewing done on Friday evening!!

Crafty Maine Mom said...

I can't believe it is July already. I have three projects to finish. Machine quilt a small wall quilt. add a border to a round robin quilt. finish a paper piece block.

Larissa said...

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!

And this would be . . . . said...

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!

Sandra :) said...

I'm one of the peeps that Miss Nancy Lee will be FNSI'ing with - maybe I can score one of her lavender sachets when she isn't looking!!! ;)

Kristie said...

I'm in!! I hope to be starting a new quilt this weekend! Just trying to get things ready for it.
Kristie

Amanda Dickson said...

I'm ready to really get some sewing done...and I need to make a couple of presents...Looking forward to a set time to work!

Wendy said...

Hi Heidi, I am looking forward to joining you!

Wonky Girl said...

I thought it was this Friday. Don't want to forget and miss out again.
I'M IN !!!

Clio said...

Looking forward to it! It's supposed to be 100 degrees in NY so I am not going anywhere but the Craft Lounge to sew up a pair of cool cotton border print pants.

Joyce said...

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.

Debbie said...

Looking forward to it!

nessa said...

Gonna be pinning two quilt tops and piecing together a third - MIL will be joining me again, no idea what she's working on this month!

Maribel said...

Finally I signed up! I will work on a table runner like last month. It will be the same pattern and I will use a City Weekend Moda Candy Bar. I´m so excited how much I will get done.
Greetings
Maribel

Teresa said...

I've got the air conditioning cranked up and a project ready to go. If I'm lucky, I'll get the top done - it's one of my own designs so I can't wait to see it done!

Deon said...

Hopefully this will give me the kick in the backside I need to get sewing again!

Madelyn said...

I am in and looking forward to it. I haven't been able to do the last few sew ins. Happy crafting!!

Anonymous said...

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

Joan said...

Hoping to get some sewing done tomorrow...I will give it my best - which isnt much at present :)

Mistea said...

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.

Christie describeHappy said...

Really looking forward to this one! I have been all puppy and parties and would really benefit from some me and sewing time. Thank you for hosting and the nudge to go sew!

Juliann said...

I found you just in time. I can take care of my To Do list today so I will be free to settle in for some serious sewing tomorrow. Lovely idea.

Sandra said...

I have my project ready! Hoping to make some real progress this month:)

Monique said...

What a fun idea!

lenoirdenantes said...

I am so glad you finally posted for the FNSI. I am going to hide in my studio and sew my heart out.

Michele said...

I'm looking forward to spending some time at my sewing machine! It's been difficult to find time to quilt this summer. We have been busy......in a good way!

make.share.give said...

On the list! I'm gonna work on PSIQuilt's Synchronized Squares quilt tomorrow night. See you Saturday!

Jindi's Cottage said...

I can't believe we are through enough of July for it to be FNSI already...I've a quilt top laid out on the floor ready for rows to be sewn together so that's tonight's focus sorted...
Congrats on the new job, good to hear that it is going well.

Rhonda said...

I thought I had more time, too, but I'm ready to sew, sew, sew!!

Mary Anne Drury said...

Oh BOY do I have lots and lots of sewing to do !!! See you all tomorrow night !

Kari @ The Purple Quiltapotamus said...

Yippie! My husband is working tomorrow night and I have a baby blanket that I can probably finish cutting and sew the whole thing tomorrow night!!!

Melody said...

Thank you so much for organising FNSI for us.

BronwynB said...

Looking forward to finishing a quilt for my friend Nancy. Lots of company tonight.

Marg said...

I'm glad your new job is going well and I'm sure it will take some time to adjust.
Looking forward to a night of sewing, I certainly have lots to do.

Bobbie said...

luv2quilt2 said...

I have so much sewing to do, so hopefully, this will push me to use more time for sewing to complete some projects.

Dogmom Diva said...

I'll be there with my stitching shoes on!

M-R Charbonneau said...

I am SO looking forward to this. Its been a long week and I need some good vibes to get me through the next 2 days at work too. My 'weekend' doesn't start till 5pm on Sunday. Happy to join everyone & I can't wait to see what you're working on!

✾Jamie Lee Cooley✾ said...

This is my first FNSI...it's worth it just to have my husband bathe the kids and put them to bed for once:)

I will check out Flikr tomorrow and post photos of what I accomplish! Thanks for the excuse to lock myself in my office.

Christine said...

Great idea and perfect timing! Just this morning, I added stitching & sewing on to-do list for the evening.

supersara20 said...

I'll be working on an embroidery project, hopefully will finish my June chicken block!

webmailaddress2 said...

I registered a few days ago but completely forgot until I randomly clicked back to the site. Yay for FNSI!

Debbie Cook said...

Getting a late start but I'm IN! Next month, I need to set a reminder in my calendar. Hah ... like I think THAT will help me be better organized. ;-)

Tanya said...

Can I join this any month....I just found this so it's kinda late for this time, but can I join next month? Sounds so fun!!

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

Kirsten said...

Hope to get something a little something done.

Cheers, K
