Wonderful Wednesday - June Friday Night Sew-In Edition

Welcome to another edition of Wonderful Wednesday!!  I'm here to share a follow-up post that I alluded to last Friday.

SEW...

Here it is!  The June meeting of Friday Night Sew-In.  Finish It Friday?  Whatever you want to call it.  I call it BLISS!!!  Five hours of sewing with friends in a big open room with PLENTY of space to lay out quilts.

Thank you to Ann for arranging our meetings and sending out reminders!  We come in and set up in dribs and drabs.  We work at our own pace on our own projects, but often feel the need to checkout what everyone else is working on.


Here is what went on last week...


Sara worked on finishing a small sweater:




Ann did some prep work for her Kaffe Quilt:


Marian prepares to sew:


Linda's machine is already humming along:


She's working on this Wheel of Fortune pattern:


Here is one of Linda's completed blocks:


Ella's machine is waiting patiently:


Oh!  There she is!!  She's making her Flying Geese units:


Jean has come to stitch with us tonight:


Cathy spent most of the evening cutting out applique pieces:


Dale thought she would try something new...

Joy finished three-quarters of the panels needed for assembly of her Pecking Order quilt:

  1. You are so lucky to have groups to keep you working and finishing! I love the way your brights glow against the B/W piecing in Pecking Order.

  2. That looks like so much fun! Reminds me of a knitting group I used to go to on Wednesdays up in Vermont. I got to visit while up there last September.... different people but still a fun and friendly group.
