where did my weekend go ...

This post was supposed to be done on Saturday ... haha ... always late ...


I was on track to do it and then received a phone call from a very dear friend .... she was passing by and wondered if we were home ... It was so lovely to catch up .. we have been friends for many many years ... since our mid teens and just don't see each other enough ...

I had a wonderful time seeing her and her hubby .... I do so love her ... and realise that I need to make more of an effort and stay in touch with my family and friends more than I do ... so if you feel that I have neglected you .. I am sorry and I promise to try to be a better friend ...

ok ... now here is what I did for my FNSI ... 

I worked on a couple of things ... first I did 2 more of these 'stack n whack' blocks ... I have so many to do and the more I do the easier they become ... but it is just setting aside the time to do them ... just one more of many UFO's to complete ...




I also got this quilt top finished ..... it was almost done .. I had to put 4 rows to it and also the borders ... it too came together very quickly ... it is a single bed size .... and now I can pop it in the tub which contains all the tops ready to be quilted ... I have collected these 6 inch charms for about 5 years I guess ...so great to see them in a quilt top at last ... I made this one for my youngest grandson ....



and a close up of some of those fantastic charm squares ... 




I also got these blocks sewn together ... they are soooo quick to do ... and they are for a lotto block swap/raffle here ... 



And that was my Friday night ... looking at it there doesn't seem to be much to show for it ... but .. I think it was a great night ... 

Hope you enjoyed yours ... 

have a great week everyone ...
