FNSI

Last evening I joined in our monthly on line virtual stitch-a-long....
The lovely Wendy was our hostess for the evening. So after battling the crazy peak hour traffic on the way home from the hairdressers across town, I promptly donned my Friday night uniform (Jim Jams) and set to work....
Of course a little sustenance was required...you know to keep up the energy.
I was quite pleased with my efforts as I managed to get little hexies appliqued into almost 3 corners of the quilt.
I thought if I started with the corners first I could see what it looked like and proceed from there...just like that little boy says in the ad on TV says "we're gonna need a bigger boat"...well! "I'm gonna need a lot more little hexies and butterflies"! Still at least I have made a start.
I hope all the other Friday-nighters had an enjoyable night stitching. I will drop by to visit later on and see what you got up to. Thank you Wendy for looking after us all so nicely xxx
Enjoy your weekend.
Namaste and Blessings,
Michelle xxx

    Now you have made a start with the borders! Perhaps a few more flowers and the odd butterfly or two.....
