Friday Night Sew In

Last night was the first Friday Night Sew In for me!  The FNSI is the brainchild of Handmade by Heidi.  (See her link below!)  Since I am still in Colorado at my daughter's house, I only brought my wall hanging to hand quilt.  So, that is what I worked on last night.

I really do like to hand quilt, so it is a nice thing to bring along with me.  The lighting isn't very good here, so my SIL got me his "spotlight" to use........

I know....it looks super silly (it's OK to laugh, my DH always does!), but it works great!!  Here is a close-up of the hand quilting.....

I am now working in the border doing my loopty-loop.  I didn't realize how time consuming this design would be!

I just had to include this picture of my SIL and me.   He is a silly guy!!  But he is also a wonderful SIL!



Next week for the FNSI, I will be back home.  I will have company for Thanksgiving, but don't worry, I will find plenty of time to sew.

Friday Night Sew-in!

I joined the Friday Night Sew-in tonight started by Heide over at homemadebyheidi.blogspot.com and Bobbi at craftyvegasmom.blogspot.com!  What a great idea.  I have always loved sewing with other women!  So, every Friday night (well Almost every Friday night) you will find me either at my machine sewing or in my chair working on some hand work.  It will be fun to know that there are a lot of other quilters out there working on their projects right along with me!  So, hop over to Heidi and Bobbi's blogs and sign up to join in the fun.

Aaaaa, I Would ask my Sister.....but she has given me a hard time lately of getting her into new quilting adventures, i.e. Quilt A Longs!!  So, my mouth is zipped.  If you read this Dear Sister....feel free to join.  But....NO pressure from me!!
