Gone Stitchin'...: What Can Happen When You're Not Looking!

The rain started to come down so I went upstairs today just to decide what to do for FNSI. I decided to work on two "Blankets of Love" each month so that I can donate at least 24 per year to our hospital. The nurse said they require approx 30 per year so I figure I would be well on target.
So yes .. hooray...I have a PLaN for tonights FNSI!
But... in the meantime I have been wanting to replace something I've had for over 20years, so this was just the day for it!
I choose a nice lime green (cause its GrEeN friday) and yellow fabric... a couple of buttons...

and a few minutes later........abracadabra !!!

Meet Mr Pinny.

Then I had lunch and what do you think happened ???
Pinny found a MaTe !

Meet Mrs Pinny.

So after organising some fabric for tonight I went downstairs to make a cup of coffee with hubby.
Of course being a GrEeN person I turned off the lights in my cubbyhole.
WeLL... after only a short time...
Can you guess???
Yep...a new addition to the pinny family....
Baby Pinny

Haven't decided on the name yet...?

Today was a FuN day....tonight will be just as good.
Why not sign up for "Friday Night Sew In" here.
