Friday Night Sew In (F.N.S.I.)

The Friday Night Sew-In is a virtual get together temporarily being hosted by myself on behalf of Heidi and her cousin Bobbi (aka Crafty Vegas Mom).

FNSI is set for the 3rd Friday of each month (Australia-time) but as our participants are joining in from all over the world, you can participate any time from Thursday - Saturday, depending on where you are.   I will post sign-ups for the month at the beginning of the third week of each month.   Here are the participation guidelines:

1. When the sign-ups are posted - add your name to the list with a link to your blog.

2. Make a post on your blog - letting all your readers know about the sew-in. Spread the word.. (grab the button from my sidebar or below) ...we could all use the virtual sewing support and encouragement.

3. On the night of the FNSI - Get your house settled, put on your comfy jammies.. maybe make a cup of tea or pour a glass of wine, make sure there's plenty of chocolate in the house, some grooving music happening or your favourite TV programs, and sit down to work on some of those projects.

4. Then, sometime on Saturday (or the day after you've joined in) - publish a post about what you worked on.. show us a picture or two on your blog, on Instagram or Pinterest. Make sure you use the hashtags #FNSI #FridayNightSewIn and tag @Sugarlane-designs and your own blog too, so we can find your beauties!

There is a FNSI group on Facebook, if you haven't already joined. Totally optional but would be so inspirational, don't you think?  The name of the Facebook group is F.N.S.I.

Each month there will be a giveaway - something awesome to one lucky participant.

If you have questions - please email me at wbert4(at)gmail(dot)com

NB:  I was the FNSI foster mumma for Heidi and Bobbi back in 2017 (I think?), but adoption has taken place!  I'll always acknowledge and thank them both for bringing FNSI into the world and I'll endeavour to keep her growing big and strong!

So join us and lets have loads of fun! :o)

Please note:  this is a Virtual Sew In....we are all in our own homes/together with friends/ however you want to stitch, but we know we're all in it together and will share all our shenanigans on our blogs and social media over the weekend for us all to ooh and aah over, and gather loads of inspiration from each other, growing our bloggy friendships more and more each month.

think this is a phenomenal idea. I will join you all on Fri night Sept. 15th. I'm not sure if I'll be able to connect with others, but I'll be thinkin about you all.

I have missed the opportunity to participate in this event. The FNSI events are celebrated in very grand way. I am waiting for the next event.

Hi Wendy,
I have not sewn a thing at all for last Friday. Brett’s older Brother has arrived and everyone has been busy here. We are taking off this afternoon to go to Narromine to drop off more gear, so I will try and get some sewing in this week and will post to my blog. Still packing up boxes.
Love from Sue C
