You're FIRED!!! Yep.. that's what Bobbi and I should have heard today!
Early this morning, my cohost contacted me and the conversation went something like this..
Bobbi: "Um.. isn't the Friday Night Sew-In in three days?"
Me: "Wait.. what?... YES! What have we done!!"
This Month has went flying by and the FNSI totally snuck up on us! We thought about cancelling - but honestly.. we ALL have too much to do with the Holiday's right around the corner. We just can't cancel!
So here it is.. the signup is here! Get your name on the list and commit to working on those gifts on your To Do list.. or any any other projects that need your attention.

Hello Heidi and Bobbi.
So looking forward to this. I have a little Christmas project to finish.
happy days.
Bev.xoxo
count me in---i was going to work on my tee-shirt quilt top--but--WhooHooo Finished it!!! i have other projects waiting though.
I'm sure planning on it! I have a Christmas quilt I'd like to get cut out!
Thanks for remembering, Bobbi!
No need to have to PLAN anything... I have several projects that need finishing before the holidays!
Can't join in this month (uni assignment!!)... or next (away, no sewing machine, no way of posting achievement...will probably be doing some needleturn applique and/or stitchery though so will be 'with' you in spirit, lol) ... I will, however have a squizzy around at everyone's achievements once this unit is finished.
Enjoy your night everyone!!!
You're human, just like the rest of us. Really, i'm surpised i've never left my kids at the mall, or something.
I will be finishing a block for a new pillow! And finishing another half started. Will stick to the plan this Friday!
Yay! I missed the last one because I was at a conference. I have a couple of little, Christmassy projects I can finish on Friday night. You just supplied the impetus to get them done!
I sure hadn't thought of it yet! Sorry, it will take a lot more than this to get fired. You're too eager. Now I must go check out my project list and gather my materials.
Glad I'm going to be doing this on the correct Friday this time!
Lots of projects on my list! I'll be there with bells on...wait, that might be distracting. Well, I'll be there...or here....however this works out :) LOL
Hello Heidi and Bobbi. I've just signed up to join you in the Friday Night Sew In. This is the first time I've signed up and I hope this won't be the last. I've been watching the FNSI for ages but always seem to have something on that night. But not this month!
SIgn me up. I've got my project ready to go!
I'm so in. I have a double nine patch that needs to see some progress.
Yeah! I've got plenty to do... where to begin.... See you on Friday!
I am excited to get to do this one!
I'm working on a few donation quilts - I don't think that I'll get any of them done for Christmas, but I can try!
I have my projects all lined up!
Not sure what project I am going to work on yet, but looking forward to Friday.
I'm working on a quilt for a family member. Hopefully, I will be able to finish it at FNSI! Hip Hip Hooray!
This is my 2nd FNSI. Hopefully I'll start my Solids Only Tote.
Looking foward to friday night, have some Christmas sewing to do.
I'm so in! I'm going to work on my tree skirt! So glad you all do this for us! Love me some FNSI!
Looking forward to sitting back, relaxing and stitching. Good work on keeping it all together. I know I couldnt. lol!
Not sure what I'll work on but looking forward to the date.
Thanks for doing the FNS :)
I almost forgot too, so don't feel bad! Plenty of projects to work on, so will see everyone (and their awesome projects) on Friday!
I have some major work to do, I want to finish my husbands star top, and my mums schnibbles top, and I think that will about do me for one night!
Looking forward to the next FNSI...time to pick one of the wip projects...
My Friday night happens a bit before yours (seeing as I am on the other side of the world in New Zealand) - have actually got training on Friday night for the job I'm going to be doing on the day of our government elections - so will be doing my patchwork on Saturday - so I figure that will be about the same time as your Friday night sew in! Looking forward to quilting a Christmas lap quilt gift and finishing the binding on a brights lap quilt for myself.
I'll be in it again!
I'm in! Thanks Heidi! :)
got my list all ready
I have loads to do! Fingers crossed the fabric I need will have arrived by friday!
You are so right - I have big list and a short time frame! Look forward to joining in as soon as I get in the door Friday night, I am cutting tonight to make sure I am ready.
Thanks for hosting.
I don't have much time on friday,but ther must be something that I can do ;o)
Greetings
Must find a hand project to take with me to band practice.... I know just the one... the kilt that needs finishing... Perfect for working on at Pipeband practice!
My second FNSI and I am looking forward to it :o)
I´m in, my second time. Think I´ll work on my chenillequilt, still have some blocks to finish.
Gun, Sweden
Looking forward to a night for me. (oh, and my sewing!) Thanks for hosting us.
Hi. Happy to be able to join in again.
Another great FNSI, I'm pretty sure.
Hopefully this is the push I need to get busy completing those Christmas gifts! Looking forward to FNSI!
Can't wait! Thanx, L
phew!!! i thought we were gonna hafta carry on without any incentive!!!
I'm glad for this opportunity and push to sew. I've been a knitting and crocheting machine but need to get cracking on the 2"x2" king-sized quilt I've committed to (hopefully) for a Christmas gift!
I'll be knitting!
This one snuck up on me ladies.
Will be on retreat but love to join all my sewing friends. Far and near.
I'm so glad FNSI is back! I'm in desperate need to get a couple of projects finished, so I'm hoping and planning on taking care of those this Friday! This is just the motivation I needed!
Woo Hoo...I love these Fridays. Hope to get caught up on some projects. Can't wait to see what everyone else is working on. Hugs
Hahaha... no, more like your awesome.. and you are so right that I sew need a sewing night to get a head around all this sewing I have thrust upon myself. Can't wait!
I love my Friday sew in's. I've got the vino ready... just need to decide which neglected project I'll work on....
Time is flying way too fast. Is it November already? :(
I will organize and get sewing.
Looking forward to it! have so many projects to work on and I really need to start making some progress
Okay, I have signed up before and then got slammed with other things or called out of town last minute. I AM DOING IT THIS MONTH! Can't wait!
I have a few things to sew... The most important is a Kindle cover to present to my soon-to-be 13 year old on his birthday in 10 days!!! I have a few blocks from a stalled BOM that I was doing, I think I'll make some more blocks until I run out of fabric and either have a quilt or a table runner. :) So, just 2 projects tomorrow.
looking forward to another productive FNSI night--last month i finished almost 4 projects, this month i plan on working on my thanksgiving dress!
I've got lots to do and even though my first FNSI 2 months ago was a bust, I'm giving it another go !
I have finally caught up on the day job and have a list of projects that need finishing-- nothing huge but it will clean up my sewing room to get them done!
I've got my plans made now I think I will follow your advice and have my fabric selected and everything ready to go.
Plans are ready and can't wait to work on some Christmas gifts!
If I am home, I'll be sewing!!!
This is my first Friday Night Sew-In. I found out about it at Ellen's blog, so thought I would join in the fun! Will post about it on my blog tonight!
Just the excuse I need to address a few WIPs!
Well I am most likely going to either work on my nieces quilt or on a jacket for my SWAP. We´ll see.
WOW this came around quick...I have a couple of projects I'd like to work on and will be happy if I get one completely finished :) Barb.
I like FNSI so much I accidentally signed up twice! Flying solo this time, my stitching buddy is stateside. I am making gift card holders and finishing a reindeer. Tra la la!
Nearly missed it, will be there
Hubby's out of town, so kids are getting pizza and a movie. I might even finish something!
I have at least three BOM projects that need to be caught up. Also a block for our guilds outgoing president.
Ohhhh can't wait!! Have got a girlie night out planned first, so will be stitching late into the early hours of the following day ;)
Thank goodness, a Friday night at home so I can sew! Got to catch up for the holidays. Yay!
I am all signed up and ready to sew!
Count me in! I'm going to start Bonnie Hunter's latest mystery and finish up some Xmas sewing.
Thanks for this! I am going to try and get my Handmade Holiday swap gift done by tomorrow night. It's do-able if the baby cooperates. :)
I am so ready to be sewing. YAY!
I am so glad it is tomorrow night, however, I thought it was next week! I'm linking right now, and I have a huge stack of things to work on! :)
Goona try and finish up some projects.
this snuck up on me too! have to go to Costco after wk but will get busy on those Christmas gifts when I get back
Ack - I almost forgot about this! Thanks for keeping me accountable! Looking forward to get some sewing done.
The couch is looking mighty good at this point :0> but count me in. toni xxx
FNSI time again. This time I have a project I HAVE to work on. I have a deadline for the end of November so this is it!
I can't wait to see what everyone works on - so, this weekend I'll be glued to the computer checking out all the blogs :)
My grandkids will be here around 6 p.m. for an overnight sleep or two. I'll just have to start earlier in the day tomorrow :)
I'm in but no idea what I'll sew. I'd better get planning.
Yay!!! I'll be out of town, but still crafting!
Well that month certainly went quickly! I won't get my project finished tonight...but I'll give it my 'best shot'!
Let the FNSI begin! I've done the tracing ready to start stitching.
Gotta luv Friday night :o)
Wow, that last month just flow by....this is great, let me see how many dance costumes I can get out tonight. Thanks Heidi.
Hi everyone...Its already Friday night here in West Australia...and I am busy sewing my labyrinth quilt. Just putting the rows together. I also have some applique pieces to get ready. Happy sewing :)
I needed this reminder too! Lots of projects that need finishing so the timing couldn't be better!
I have missed the last few sew ins. I am looking forward to this one.
I have so many things to get finished. Now, as in the past, I sign up and all hell breaks loose around here. Keeping fingers crossed it is a quiet day.
Oh, yes, I'll be there . . . here . . . whatever! I'm working on quilting a Christmas quilt for my bed and need to get it DONE!
I was not sure if there would be a Friday night sew-in. Thanks to Pam @ Threading my way that posted about this on her blog..I signed up..just in time. :)
The Christmas decorations are out (and almost done being put out) and so I can finish up, and then get to sewing on my daughter's quilt for Christmas. Thanks for hosting.
I'm soo excited! I have 2 quilts that need to be sandwiched and FMQ'd. I also have one quilt that needs to be started. Cut, sew, press and repeat. And, a couple little kitty projects to finish before Christmas.
I really needed this!!!
I've started using Aunt Martha's ballpoint paints to do iron-on transferred pictures. I'm then adding sashing.
I will be working on a coat! - I desperately really need a coat!
Finished...one lap quilt!

The night is still young and I have sewing to do :)
Excited to do this!!!!!!!!!
I am such a looser lately I am going to complete a couple of things tonight
Yay! I finally remembered to do this! Thank you so much for not cancelling! Ok, must get back to the machine!
This is my first FNSI. My husband and 4-year-old son BOTH went to bed at 8:30pm. Whohoo!!!! Free time! I'm working on Step 1 of Bonnie Hunter's Orca Bay Mystery quilt. Lots of cut, sew, cut, sew, cut, sew, cut...
Glad to be a part of the group.
This is the first Friday to join you all. I am starting Bonnie's Orca Bay Mystery and working on some star blocks. Best get to work here.
Am joining in all the fun. Ready to complete so many ufo's here with you all.
I just stumbled across your blog/website via a link on flickr and I really love the idea of the friday night sew in! (what a great excuse to sit and sew!) and I had to sign up (I have too many half done or barely started projects that could totally get done if I'd commit!)
Thanks for the idea and inspiration! (and now I'll have to make time to read back through your blog since it seems to be filled with all sorts of fantastic-ness!
My first entry, nr 49, did get the wrong URL. I did a new entry,nr 157, with the right URL.
Thank you for hosting this event!
I forgot to link up before the event - but I'm linked now, and my post is done! Now to see what everybody else got done.
I have been so busy sewing that I forgot to sign up for FNSI this time! The good news is that I did sew along with you all!
I forgot to add that I did also blog about my sewing project.
I look forward to joining in again next month.
Hi Heidi!
I saw the call for FNSI, but I thought it was for December!
So I've linked up with the almost finished results!
Take care, Leslie
