Does mending count? (for the Friday Night Sew In)


Happy VERY rainy and blustery Saturday (I guess if you're a duck you're happy). Anyhow, the MIBAJ Sewing Dept was too pooped and disorganized to get any sewing done last night during the actual Friday Night Sew In (aka FNSI) but today they were ON FIRE ....well, if you count mending a hole in Mr. Moonbeam's stretchy biking britches and ....



....piddling around with colored pencils trying to figure out what to do with that jelly roll and ...


...trying to make earth shattering decisions like what to do with this appliqued block AND if the rick rack should go on the dish or not ....then we are DEFINATELY ON FIRE !!! .....well, OK .... so it wasn't the most productive FNSI but at least it involved the sewing machine (mending .... HATE IT!) .... drawing and pretty fabric (LOVE IT!) ... and playing with rick rack (LOVE IT !) Now run along and visit the blogs of the other much more productive FNSI participants while we get back to that big decision about the red rick rack ....

Be back soon!

Be back soon!

I love the rick rack on the ice cream bowl. I don't like mending, either. It's more like work than sewing. It would be easier if they just got new pants! I'm glad to see you made it for the FNSI. We will have to schedule it better next time so we can sew and chat together.
