FNSI Doubled.


For FNSI I decided to try and get one of my UFO’s made and empty one of my boxes. The project I chose I had worked on at Patch. Maybe I can get it finished.

I stitched and stitched

and stitched

and by midnight I had a lot of the quilt top done

002

BUT realised I still had to find the requirements for a workshop I was going to in the morning. So I stopped sewing.


004    These are my friends from Patch all busy working on the project. Applique using freezer paper.

 We were all pleased with the blocks we worked on.
Tonight I continued my FNSI with all the ladies overseas. I still did not finish my quilt top.

 Still have these to stitch on.

Will work on it again tomorrow.

It was fun doing a DOUBLE FNSI with you all.

    You did get a lot done! I've had those moments and it feels like it will never end. But look at all you did. Great work!

    Aren't you the lucky one - Double FNSI! I haven't tried applique using freezer paper, so I'll have to look for a tutorial. THe block you made is beautiful! As is your other colorful quilt. Keep on stitching.

    You got an awful lot done Maria. The applique flowers look great. I was going to join in on the FNSI but realised we had tickets to the theatre. Hopefully I can join in next time!

    Phew.. there is no way I could keep up that pace.... I love the quilt you are making ... what a sweet pattern and I am intrigued with the applique being finished off my machine that way.... and I LOVE your UFO boxes.... I think I need some like that..... (instead of cheap plastic ones)

    Those appliques are just amazing!! I think the FNSI should be UFOs. That would be fun and get us to work on half done projects.

    I really like the colours in the quilt you're working on. It's going to be really pretty once you're finished.

    And those applique blocks... all I can say is WOW! I can sure tell why everyone was so pleased with them.

    Wow! What an amazing effort to sew so late and not make any mistakes and nearly get it finished. The quilt top looks great.

    You were busy! I love the applique blocks! Need to do some more some day because I really like how you added a row of applique flowers to the quilt.
