How was your FNSI?


Mine went a bit like this.
Great Granny 
got a look at first. I had three left to make


Now I have two as I got a little distracted and got my


"My Favourite Things"
quilt top ready to quilt

then moved onto my
Merry Merry Snowman 
Quilt and pieced block 8 and hung it with block 9


then decided to get the appliqué ready



This is the block that "sold me" on this quilt and I still love it :o)



Now both blocks are ready to stitch.

Lastly, I went back to this.


I found these Quilt Clips yesterday at Spotlight.
How did I not know about them?

I then finished off my night with a glass of wine and some quilting.
First a bit of "in the ditch" then some outlining of the Appliqué.


Looks like my plan of attack this weekend will  should be more work on this one
but with my track record last night who knows!
Off now to grab a coffee and to see what everyone else got up to.

Have a great weekend.

    Sharon, did you get any sleep?!? I'm impressed by how much you got done. What's your secret?
    By the way, I love using those blue clips. It's like having an extra set of hands!

      Hi Nicole, I have my family "fully trained" so that when I tell them that is it FNSI they back away quietly! lol

    Love all your projects, Sharon. Come and share on Applique Thursday and possibly win a book. Your Favorite Things is darling! So are the snowmen.

    Hi, Sharon! Wow!! You got a lot done there. :D I just *love* the snowmen in the pickup, as well as your "My Favorite Things." Thanks so much for sharing them at BOMs Away.

    Hey - when you do your blanket stitching on your applique, do you use any kind of stabilizer on the back? Or do you actually do that as a part of the quilting?

    Wow, all that in one night? Those snow men are super cute. Hope they don't get in trouble for riding in the back of a pick up;)
