............ scream!
I was so looking forward to my FNSI - I had several tasks in mind ;-)
However, I only completed one ;-(
I spent a large part of my time picking fabric and cutting ready for my Block Swap Adventure partner's block - the Lattice Square
you know what's coming don't you .......... measure twice, cut once!
first lot of fabrics, I realised half way that I didn't have enough for what I wanted to do, then I don't know what happened, but I mucked up and cut all of the squares 1/4" smaller than needed!
I eventually finished the block with my third choices of fabric ;-(
Something did make me happy though ................ 
I received some more goodies for my Santa Sack from Fiona
This morning we have had a new television delivered, so I am currently on 'apprentice' duty with the husband setting up the stand and putting it on the lowline entertainment unit - glad I had my Weetbix for breakfast.
EDITED: See post HERE for update on what happened with the television :(

Remember, any day doing something you love makes it a good day ;-)
Doing what you like is freedom. Liking what you do is happiness.

Gosh even your third fabric choices are gorgeous, lovely block and lovely finish. Yay for Fiona's knowingness in sending you choccy before the crisis ;)
ReplyDeletePopping in via FNSI. Sorry to hear your Friday night was less than relaxing but your third choice fabrics do look great in the block.
