FNSI for Feb 2020

Oh it's RAINING, such a beautiful sound on our roof.... haven't had any wet stuff since last October. Lovely to hear our water tanks filling up as our water supply was getting low....
Such a great sound to listen to last night as I sewed along with Wendy for our FNSI....

I actually got the borders of FROLIC sewn together and on...

and Taa Dahhhhhhh !!!!!! 

                                                        it's a flimsy.     
Now to find a backing for it, then sandwich, pin and get it quilted....
I only did 9 blocks but it makes up a nice Lap size and I can't believe " I'm HAPPY with it "






As it was still early enough to do some more I sewed three more blocks for the " Flip Flop Scraps" project....
















Must away now and cut some more 2 1/2" squares..


Happy stitching and stay safe....


Hugs  Maria  ❤

  4. Your Frolic flimsy turned out beautifully with the 9 block setting. It does make a nice sized lap quilt.

    Isn’t the sound of rain comforting? We had rain in the forecast for last night, but only got a few sprinkles. 😢

    Those Flip Flop blocks are a great use of the 2.5” squares.

  6. Glad to hear that you have rain finally especially when relying on tank water. Frolic is looking gorgeous. You can come and help me cut some 2 1/2" blocks - a job I keep putting off.

  10. Hello Maria.

    Isn't the rain just wonderful. The clouds are rumbling outside now but I don't expect to get much. Lovely bright sewing projects.

    Happy days.

  12. Top marks for persistence with Frolic - it really is lovely, and I hope you feel good when you look at it rather than the frustration of the reverse sewing you had to do. Maybe your mojo will return now. So glad you've had some rain - hopefully it was a decent amount that will keep your tank full for a while.
