FNSI #2 and a free B.O.M.

Not much done this weekend due to most of it spent preparing DS for life away from home, uni-style!!! But I did manage to get a couple of blocks started for the Craftsy BOM using these beauties… 003 They’re Free Spirit Fabrics’ ‘Boho’ by Annette Tatum….not my regular choice of fabrics but they look great stitched into blocks and I love ‘em……… 001 002 Teamed with Robert Kauffman’s Kona Cotton Solids in Snow, I can’t wait to see each block each month. You can join in too……it’s a free BOM which you can register for here.  Two new blocks on the first of each month…..sweeeeeet!  Even I can handle that! And I even fitted in a buddy-date with a girlfriend on Friday night….watching her daughter perform in our local production of ‘Grease’.  Couldn’t stop rocking in our seats….I remember going to see the movie when it first came out, with my English class in year 8…….now we’re going back some!!!!! LOL Next month, why don’t you join me on the Friday Night Sew In too?  Read all about it here and we’ll see what finishes we can both get done! xo  Sugary hugs :O) my signature
