FNSI, a Happy Dance and a Friday Frolics Giveaway....

 Oh dear, it has also been nine months (just like my recent TUSAL report) since I did a FNSI post - last April, in fact.  But, anyway, here I am again and I had a very productive FNSI as I managed to put stitches into not one by two projects and I have a Happy Dance for one of them - way to go moi!

Both of these projects I began on 15th January, 2015!!!!!! Yep, six years ago but as they popped up this week as my Friday Frolics projects they finally got some love!

First up is a Lizzie Kate design, "Well behaved Women" - as you can see I used my own choice of colours  and although some of the lettering is a bit pale, with the right fabric when I finish it as a cushion, I think it will pop!




As this was a Friday Frolics project, I am going to have my first Giveaway of 2021 of this cute design (no little button nor threads, though).

4. Giveaway closes at midnight, January 31st AEDT (Australian Eastern Daylight Time)

5. Good Luck!🍀

The second project which I managed to get two lines of stitching done last evening - but only because TraderVic and I bingewatched the third season of Cobra Kai last night - lol! ...

... is another design which I received as part of my The Silver Needle's "A Little Help from Our Friends Stitching Circle" called "F is for Friend" by Heartstring Samplery Design.

As I said, just a couple of rows of stitching but a stitch is a stitch is a stitch!

FNSI is just a great motivator to get some sewing done and finishing our UFO's.

Each stitch is a stitch closer to the finish line.

Fantastic finish on the anniversary of the start! Perfect timing.
I'm going to check out the FB group, I might have more success posting there as I can use my iPad for FB.
