Are you all excited for this months Friday Night Sew-In? I know I am....ive been a craftin machine lately. Teaching myself to crochet, a wood project in the works, a few behind the scenes swaps to do. I have a huge list.....and need this night to give me the push to complete something.
Heidi and I love doing these each month.
2/18/11 is the date!
If you are new and need to know how it works.. here are the details:
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 – 2/18/11- Get your house settled, put on your comfy jammies.. maybe make a cup of tea or pour a glass of wine.. and sit down to work on some of those projects.
4. Then, sometime on Saturday - publish a post about what you worked on.. show us a picture or two on Flickr. There is a FNSI group on Flickr if you haven't already joined. Totally optional.
And finally - on Sunday 2/20/11, we will enter all participants into a drawing for the GIVEAWAY!! Heidi will be drawing the winner this month and sending the lucky person a box of goodies!

Have signed up and updated the FNSI button on my blog.
Hi! I always enjoy this! Thank you!
I'm in!
I'm in!
Woo hoo!
Awesome! I can't wait to see what everyone is working on.
I'm ready to settle in for another Friday night of stitching :)
I'll be there!
Hi Bobbi Looking forward to our stitching night on the 18th .
I'm in! I need to do some quilting!
I'll be off to a cabin in the woods on Friday for the weekend. Will take my hand sewing with me and FNSI away, but won't be posting on Saturday - no internet service. No power either.
I'n in. This is my first FNSI. See you next Saturday.
Love this idea. In the past, my daughter and I have turned on iChat at our homes and sewed together while we were miles apart. It was fun--like being the new Nancy Zieman!
I'm also going to have some crafty girls my age (ahem) over in March for crafty days, since none of us can afford to go to retreats. I'm sending my DH and sons to hotel and us girls will stay here. Win-win!
Looking forward to seeing everyone's projects!
I'm going to miss the sew-in this month. I will be on an overnight trip with Quilt Friends to a Shop Hop. See everyone next month.
Ready for another FNSI! Thanks!
Count me in, can't wait!!!

I flubbed the Jan sew-in, but it won't be a repeat offense! Can't wait!! Thank you for hosting this fun party!

I'm a big FNSI fan! I won't have as much time as I normally carve out but I will make the time. This is always a good motivator to have some fun!
I'm ready. Friday night sewing is wonderful. I am so enjoying these. Thanks for continuing to do these this year! See ya Friday!

Definately in. I have my mom's quilt (that I gave her for CHristmas) left to finish.

Perfect timing! I'll have just gone shopping with my sister to pick out the backing and binding for her quilt.
Love these FNSI's! Give's me a chance to get some of those UFO's done!

I missed last time ...linked up and then ended up to my eyeballs in tinsel and Christmas madness and didnt get a thing done....So looking forward to this one!
I'm in...;)
This is the first month is a while that I didn't have some other quilting plans nicely coincide with FNSI. I'll be spending some quality time with a project at home ... I'm already looking forward to it.
Excited to maybe get some stuff done.
Count me in. I NEED some good sewing time to maybe get something a little closer to a finish.
I have so many ideas for Christmas presents I can do :).
Count me in! I actually got a chance to participate last time, but didn't post to my blog until the Monday after: http://sewmuchknitting.blogspot.com/2011/01/butterick-5244-for-kristen.html
I'll try harder this time :-)
Can't wait! I need a push to work on a purse that was suppose to be a Christmas Present. LOL
I'm in - Wendy (#62) posted this to her blog and I decided to join along - I need to pick a fun project to work on :)
I am going to sew up a couple of UFO's!
Looking forward to it once again. Thanks to you and Heidi!
I love FNSI. It gives me the unflappable excuse to quilt 'til I wilt. No phone, no errands, no curfew. Yeah!!
This will be my first sew-in. Since it's "official", I wrote it on my calendar with a reminder to post my sew-in pics on Saturday. Thanks for the opportunity to join you!
This is a first for me, but here in the UK, I will be in bed whilst you are stitching, with my evening finished,Hope to get alot done.
The calendar is marked and I have a couple of projects in mind! I'm looking forward to some me time...
I am ready.

Looking forward to it!
I've got a sample project to make, so that might be my project for tonight, or I might work on a quilt for me!
I'm in. Working on the muslin now so I can get to the real thing for sew-in.
This is my first time. Whewhoo!!! I am starting just as soon as I get in my sewing room...I'm designing as I go, sew probably won't get too much done but I see the light at the end of the tunnel. (In about 6 months.)L

Okay, count me in. The FNSI helps to motivate me.

Just signed in, plan on working on UFO's all day Friday and Saturday too. Should get lots done:)
I'm in. It's going to be a late night because I won't be able to get started until after 9, but I love FNSI and don't want to miss it!
I just signed up and posted on my blog what I'll be working on Friday night.
Had a great time last month. I'm very excited to do it again.
I'm so happy this month the date lines up with a friday that I have NO PLANS!!!
:)
Yeh, I can do this a good time to sew on my postage stamp quilt or the Easter Mug Rug or my sister's birthday wall hanging. Hmm seems first thing is to settle on one project.
Haven't played along for a few months it's time to rejoin the FNSI world...
I am looking forward to participating!!
I'm in again, but I may just be doing a lot of prep work.
I love this idea! I'm excited to get some sewing done. :-)
I have been sick. My husband is out of town for work. But I want to participate!!
This is my first FNSI, I'm really looking forward to finally being able to join in.
I have two projects - an old one and a new one. I am so excited about sewing on Friday night!
My daughter and I are looking forward to a fun sewing evening!
I know what I'm going to do and I'm all set to go.
I'm looking forward to some sewing tomorrow evening.

Linked up and ready to SEW!
Made it just in time to register as it's 6.30 pm Friday night here in New Zealand!
I am finally going to be home so I can do the FNSI!! So fun!
I accidentally entered twice. My second entry, #144 was incorrectly added. Sorry....I am looking forward to sewing on my dinosaur quilt top for the sew in, I hope to get the piecing finished so I can get it quilted! Thanks for doing this.
Let's sew. I hope this becomes a regular Friday night occupation for me.
Looking forward to sewing tonight and just about to put a post on my blog.
I almost missesd this FNSI. I usually sign up on Heidi's blog but I found you by way of a couple blogs I follow. I will get my list together and be working as soon I have fed my family.
Yeah!
Oh how I need this FNSI!
150! On the button! :)
Looking forward to joining in tonight! I have several projects demanding my attention. Hopefully this won't turn into a "wash-in" as I prepare fabric for the next few projects. ;)
I'm in, I was trying to figure out how I could still participate since I wasn't going to be home and have found the perfect project!
Just what I need to get me into sewing gear and away from scrapbooking!
I thought I had signed up already, oh well better late than never
Oh yes, count me in! Thanks for hosting the FNSI! You have both given us incentive to keep those projects going!
I am working on some stitching this evening, not acutally sewing, but its all about finishing, right?
I hope I'm not too late!
Bobbi, I was going to sew anyway and last minute decided I better sign up for the Friday Night Sew In and so I am. Ok, back to my sewing project.
Nancy Lee I'm so glad you could join in the fun - I can't wait to see what you worked on! I posted my finishes to my blog (and will check yours for an update) - this was SO much fun - I can't wait to do it again! Maybe next time we can FNSI together :D
Oops I forgot to comment but I did participate! So commenting now! Jo Anna
Had a great night sewing... got lots done.... Thanks for running this. I even got some cleaning done in my sewing room - although it doesn`t really look like it (its still a mess!)
Had a quick FNSI - but at least, I was able to get some sewing done.
I was tired last night. But I worked on a small project:
