Missed FNSI and Progress


Happy Monday!


I fully intended to participate in Wendy’s Friday Night Sew-In on February 17th but something came up, something good. I’ll share more on that later.

 

I did make good progress on my cross stitch and sewing projects, though.

 

Here is where I am currently on Red Bird Sampler by With Thy Needle and Thread.  You can see where I left off here.


 

Since I finished my oldest cross stitch WIP Irony, I picked up the next oldest which is Sew She Did by Lori Holt of Bee In My Bonnet.  



I forgot to take a beginning photo but here is where I am now…

 

I am current on Sewcialites 2

 

Block #16 Christmas Star designed by Corey Yoder of Coriander Quilts

 

And #17 Simplicity designed by Vanessa Goertzen of Lella Boutique



I am also current on the Scrappiness is Happiness quilt-along. 

 

Week 17’s block is Blossom


Today’s block, week 18, is Large Checkerboard block.



Fat Quarter Shop had a giveaway on Instagram a few weeks ago. You just needed to post your most current Scrappiness is Happiness block and tag them. Well, I played and won. I received three Lori Holt binders, her office bundle and a signed copy of the Scrappiness is Happiness book.  The photo isn’t great



Today’s plan is to finish a big project for work and see what I've missed in blogland.

 

Hope you have a great week!

Wow!!! Look at all your progress and to think you have a job too! Congrats on the big win! That's wonderful. I love her stuff but it is pricey but when you get it for free, now we're talking! I'm so happy for you. I love all your blocks and the red bird sampler is on my list. I think I want a bird wall. I have the Lori Holt XS also...it is a WIP but I'm not as far as you are. Good job on all fronts!
