Quilt in a Day Forums

Dumb question here, what is a sew-in?

What's a sew-in? Well, we just check in and chat with each other while we work on our projects. PJ's, snacks, boas, tiara's, whatever you wish. It's just more of a get together to chat while we're sewing. Please join in, it's fun.

Carole I bought that bunny fabric too. It's very cute. I fussy cut the bunnies and I'm going to use them for the center of stars. I just have to find some good colors to go with the fabric.

BRB.......time for supper!! see you in a little while!!

Did you know the term "fussycut" was coined my neck o fthe woods at a QIAD seminar given by Pat K?

I had no idea Lee. Interesting.

Have a Masonic Dinner to attend but will be sewing before and after! I am working on flannel pajama pants for DH tonight and hope to get some work done on UFO that I have neglected for a while.
I really need to firm up my gift list so I stay focused but that would be way too logical. LOL
Happy stitching!!

mequilter, can't wait to see what you do with your charm pak. I love table runners.
Carol, I am anxious to see your bunny quilt, I like bunnies.

I just got home, grandma wanted to get a few things at the grocery store.... We took off about 11am and I told her the craft fair was going on in town.... so we went. I spent $5 at the 4H booth and bought $20 worth of raffle tickets.... grandma bought the same amount of raffle tickets. Woo Hoo, I won... I got a basket with 4 icecream bowls, some ice cream towels, a few toppings. and another basket with two chili pepper towels and a bell and I also won a angle ornament and two of those things you put plastic grocery bags in so you can pull one out of the bottom.... and a few other things. I really got my money back. But the best part was my grandma ( she's 85) had a blast.... she was laughing and cracking jokes. She has really loosened up since grandpa died one year ago.... and she is so much funner to be around.

I won't have a project but will be cleaning up my sewing room and be popping in and out because DH is on his way home from work and will need his cup of coffee... for supper tonight it's chicken fried steak, mashed taters with gravey and some kind of veggie

Hope you all are having fun.

I'm here. Spent the last hour - or more - trying to pick out 6 fabrics from my stash for a Christmas table runner. That's the hardest part for me and why I love it when the people at the LQS will do it for me - or have fabric already bundled!!

Chriss - wish I could eat with you tonight - that sounds YUMMY!!

Chriss your dinner sounds so good. Think Ann & I will just drop on over. LOL
