FNSI - September

DH is a Cats (Geelong) fan so it was a quick dinner and the AFL for him.
So I escaped to my sewing space . . . .
Sadly Geelong lost....

 I spent my time prepping 10 blocks of my Kinship Fusion Sampler.
I got 2 sewn:

 I still have (only have)  7 (out of a hundred) to cut... I haven't repeated a fabric (apart from white) and have quite a few blues still to use . . . but its getting harder to make a "pleasing combination".  I think I will be into my Balis for some of the rest of them.

 I was also able to get a bit of stitching in during the day (lunch time):

This is (yet another) new project - Its a pre-printed panel (gotta LOVE pre-printed things) from Natalie Bird.  I've forgotten its correct name - Willowbrook is part of it.  The pattern she created for the panel is hexies with the stitchery in the middle.  There is a gorgeous range of fabrics that match, but I have gone for another range with some extras and probably some others from my stash.

Pretty happy with my efforts - and I am out sewing on Sunday so it should be a good  weekend for sewing progress.

I hope you all had a fun productive night  (or day)

    I love all your preprepped blocks on their special boards.... just perfect. I always like to get a few blocks done when the fabrics are out too... I got the minty blue panel too.... like I haven't got enough things to stitch.... not sure how I will put it together or what fabrics or even when I will stitch it!!! haha

    Sorry that DH's Cats lost but you scored a winner with your sewing! Great job. Wish I could see a bigger piece of that panel! 😉

    Great idea to use the boards for the prepped blocks, I always say I'll make some but never get around to it! Those blues look like they are going to come together nicely - hehe having enough blues not to be repeating them :-) Your stitchery project looks lovely!

    Your Kinship progress is so good Susan... & I love your organisation with the prep... I'm excited to see your blocks all together, whenever that happens!

    The blocks are coming together so nicely. It doesn't matter that a few of the last blues aren't appealing, as they will be lost among all the others in the quilt. I can't wait to see it all come together.
