Friday Night Sew In time again !!! Its this coming friday, January 20th.
Here is a breakdown of the "rules". (i hate that word rules because no one will get in trouble for not participating). someone give me another word.....or phrase. LOL
anyhoo.......here it is in the quick and short version.
1. get your world in order on Friday and sew, craft, stamp, scrapbook, build, embroider, crochet, knit, or paint until your eyes wont stay awake anymore. make sure you have some comfy jammies on and a beverage of choice and a yummy snack. this night is for YOU. if you have kids, maybe include them in the fun. if your kids are older (like mine) order them pizza or give them movie money. LOL!
2. Take photos of what you did and blog about it on Saturday. This will enter you into the drawing for a FNSI prize :)
3. Sunday come back and see if you won. Ill be posting the winner at some point on Sunday.
thats about it. OH YEAH....HAVE FUN and tell all of your friends about our virtual party!
Thanks Bobbi... see you Friday...

I need a FNSI this week...i've been so busy with other things that it's been impossible to get any sewing done. So, Yay! for FNSI! I'm ready!

ReplyDeleteI'm trying really hard to finish up some of my UFOs from last year (and the year before that...), so I'll probably work on something from that pile...
ReplyDeleteThis will be my first time joining in. Hubby and kids are going to be gone so it's a perfect time to start. Now...what project to work on?!
ReplyDeleteSee all you lovely crafters on Friday...or Saturday in other parts of the world. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm really looking forward to the first 2012 FNSI...my sister is coming over and we will sew all night!

ReplyDeleteLooking forward to Friday! I managed to miss both the December ones :-(
ReplyDeleteYippee - I've got my project all ready for Friday - can't wait to see what you'll all be busy stitching too :)
ReplyDeleteFingers crossed, my FNSI will hopefully be the re-launch of my blog (not working yet) and also hopefully to pull fabrics for the swoon-along. :)
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to Friday here too!
ReplyDeletenot sure about nighttime... but will get some sewing done on Friday. Robbie Burns dinner as a pipe band fundraiser is Friday night - and I have a baby quilt, in a basket up for auction.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to this as I've not managed to join in for quite a while.
ReplyDeleteIt's ages since I got to take part in the Friday night sew in so I'm really looking forward to it
ReplyDeletei maybe will do some hand sewing ...at least I hope to get something done. Looking forward to FNSI
ReplyDeleteI'm all signed up and ready for a night of fun!
ReplyDeleteI'm keeping FNSI's for Birthday and Christmas pressies this year. I think I'll have to make a special box and see how quick I can fill it :).
ReplyDeleteCheers,
RobynK
I have 8 UFO's so I need to get my butt in the sewing room stat, lol. I'll definitely be there this Friday.
ReplyDeleteSo needed, so can't wait, clearing my Friday night for this!!
ReplyDeleteI have seen the fnsi button a lot and finally decided to check out what it is all about...since I usually do my sewing Friday night and post on Saturday this works perfectly for me! Can't wait to sew and see what everyone else does!
ReplyDeleteWHEW! I am sooo ready to spend an evening sewing on Friday night. Now to decide am going to finish FMQ on a baby quilt or start sewing another one!
ReplyDeleteA wonderful excuse to get some sewing done
ReplyDeleteThis Friday I plan to really participate. In December I was a bit to busy with moving and didn´t sew much. Now I have a lot of projects, so Friday here I come!!
ReplyDeleteGun, Sweden
I never did manage to join in last year, so taking the opportunity now, and look forward to joining in.
ReplyDeleteI've been planning some FMQ for Friday. 'see' you then.
ReplyDeleteI have not participated in a while, hope to get a wall hanging finished and start a couple other projects. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI am #90 on the sign ups with 3 more days until the sew in. I am really looking forward to this one since all of the holiday obligations are behind me and I can sew what ever I want! I have a bottle of wine ready to enjoy, a new tv in my sewing room and pretty brand new landscaping outside my sewing room window. Friday, hurry up and get here!
ReplyDeletecan't wait for the first sew in of 2012
ReplyDeleteLooking for some Great relaxation time with my Wonderful sewing room! :) Thanks for hosting FNSI!
ReplyDeleteI'll be working on UFO's and if I finish at least one I can start on the Dresden Plate QAL at Bunny Hill Designs. Trust me....I must....I will finish a UFO. Looking forward to FNSI...(o:
ReplyDeleteWhat to work on, I have so much choice. :)
ReplyDeleteI love FNSI time. It gives me the permission to dedicate the entire evening to sewing. Pizza for supper, son gets unlimited computer time, dog gets walked early, music on, coffee pot on. And create!
ReplyDeleteJust found your Friday Night Sew-in. Im Sew-In...LOL. See you Friday Night.
ReplyDeleteI am looking forward to my first ever FNSI. I have seen them on the lovely blogs of people who are doing the Vignette hexagon quilt last year. I have a few projects on the go so will pick one and make sure I have everything I need for it organised ready to go.
ReplyDeleteHelp, I need to get my niece's quilt finished, at least the top sewn together!
ReplyDeleteBoy, do I need some extended sewing time! I'll be planting myself on the couch and working on a counted crossstitch project that I've been trying to finish for ages.
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting, this should be fun!
ReplyDeleteFNSI! Looking forward to making an iPad purse/sleeve thingy which I have yet to design...that's what Thursdays are for! Thanks for hosting!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you guys are doing this again this year. Thanks for hosting again. I really enjoy doing this.
ReplyDeleteAfter a very busy year last year and not getting to participate much I'm really looking forward to taking part in this FNSI. I've got some exciting things to share and looking forward to the excuse to sit down and sew. Thank you so much for hosting this, I think it's a great idea. Corrina
ReplyDeleteOiling my machine and starting my engine!
ReplyDeleteI'm on my own for most of the evening, so I can play this month.
ReplyDeleteI hope I am able to play this month!
ReplyDeletethanks for the inspiration!! actually have saturday off, so i may get something (the 9 patch!) finished!! :-)
ReplyDeleteThis is my first time join in the fun! I hope I can show up something this Friday! :)
ReplyDeleteThie would be my first FNSI, have a few projects in mind, not quite sure what would pick
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to a new FNSI year!
ReplyDeleteWe're in!! Mom and I are preparing today so that tomorrow can be productive.
ReplyDeleteWoot! I thought I was off to camp this weekend but it's next weekend!! Now I really have to find those dog coat patterns..yee haw!!
ReplyDeleteI have a BIG project to do. Quilting my Queen size quilt on my home machine. This will be a learning experience. (Please ignore any cussing you hear. hehehe)
ReplyDeleteDon't know what I'll be doing exactly. I am currently working on a spider web, a swoon and a wool applique. maybe i'll touch base on all three.
ReplyDeleteI haven't participated in months. But I'm getting that tingle and I miss the mess so I think I'll jump in this month.
ReplyDeleteInstead of rules, use "Guidelines".
ReplyDelete*I stole that from Pirates of the Caribbean*
I will be fixing some of my bro-in-law's pants and hopefully getting some piecing done...
Cant wait for tonight, sew excited.
ReplyDeleteI'm joining at the last minute again, but I will be sewing away tomorrow night! :)
ReplyDeleteCount me in. DH is working and I can sew until I drop for sure.
ReplyDeleteHave just the right thing I want to do this evening. Hope to have a finished sample.
Guidelines was the word that immediately sprung to mind and it seem to be the popular chioce as I notice many ahve suggested it before me, although you could also go with notes or information. have just got back into stitching and plan to do some tonight so think for the first time I might linkmon up. happy stitching
ReplyDeleteYippy. I have way to much to do not to make use of this time!
ReplyDeleteI'm planning on a FNSI once a month it's such a great idea. Tonight's projects are UFO's.
ReplyDeleteI am in.... have no children at home tonight... not until I have to collect her from a party...
ReplyDeletethis'll be my first FNSI....sooo looking forward to this becoming part of my monthly routine!!!!!
ReplyDeleteCatch ya there
sugary hugs
Wendy :O) xo
Tonight I'll focus on a UFO or may be two.
ReplyDeleteLook forward to see what you all are making.
See you all this evening, happy stitching.
ReplyDeleteThanks Bobbi! Enjoy your sewing time!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to tonight! How about guidelines instead of rules?
ReplyDeleteEven a little sewing tonight will be so welcome!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to tonight! :)
ReplyDeleteYou can delete #153. I put the addy in wrong. I signed up both my blogs, because I'll be splitting activities this time!
ReplyDeleteGetting in under the wire, but I'm in! \o/!
ReplyDeleteLots to do over here...Count me In!
ReplyDeleteHi i would love to add your button FNSI button to my blog. where can I find the code.
ReplyDeleteOh, how cool! This will be my first time. Fun stuff! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat to see what everyone has been creating!
ReplyDeleteHow exciting! I love inspiration especially when I can get it from Christian Crafters. Can't participate this Friday, but would love to in the future!
ReplyDeleteThanks for organising this. I had a great time and hubby made sure everything was organised around it for me too which was wonderful. Girls are easy to manage but a 4 month old pup is a different matter LOL.
ReplyDeleteI've never participating in the Fri night sew in! I think it will be fun. Can't wait to see whatever does!
ReplyDeleteit is so cold here all we can do is stay in a sew tonight. Planning to work on my red scraps more. See if I can get the heart quilt top done to post Saturday AM or very late tonight.
ReplyDeleteam late signing up! about to make a quick blog post then grab my supplies! I missed the past 3 but wasn't about to start off 2012 missing one!
ReplyDeleteAte pizza. Check. A little drink. check. Now to make a start on my swoon quilt.
ReplyDeleteI blogged about this! woohoooo Thank you so much for doing this!

Got a few things I need to finish tonight
ReplyDeleteThis is my first FNSI and I'm so excited! I'll be working on Swoon blocks!
ReplyDeleteI'm just getting ready to head downstairs to my ironing board and sewing machine! Let the FNSI begin!
ReplyDeleteWhew, it's midnight, and I've been sewing for 4 hours straight. Great fun. Thanks for hosting.
ReplyDeleteI really made progress last night and posted pictures on my blog at www.oneoldgoat.blogspot.com However I couldn't figure out how to link my blogpost to this comment.
ReplyDeleteReally fun initiative and its my first entry. Really enjoyed this and hope it will happen again in the future. Thank you for making this happen. ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks for doing the FNSI! It really helps me to finish my projects.
ReplyDeleteMy very first FNSI - thanks for hosting! Thanks to the motivation my binding is finally done!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun. Can't decide whether to commit or not yet. How about saying "guidelines" instead of rules. Not that I am bothered by the word rules but you had asked for another word! Thank you for organizing this fun for Fridays.
ReplyDeleteI love sewing on Fridays. Just added a link to FNSI today so I'm too late for January. I'm looking forward to the rest of the months though.
