ThE MorNinG After

Well FNSI (Friday Night Sew In)
did not go well for me last night!!!!

This is what I was doing...
or at least that was what it felt like...errrr

Firstly, I cut out some 2 1/2 in squares in two colours...
so far so good...

Then I stitched them together...
still good...
NO... that won't work ...
So some un-stitching...
Play with more fabric...   LOTS more fabric !
then placement..       LOTS of different arrangements !
errrr ... so frustrating....awwwrrrgggg !    Just NOT happening!!!
Tried THIS...
Yep ... that will work.... BUT it was 2 hours later...
By that time I was well and truly disgusted...  so I went to bed... !
NoT -  HaPPy - JaN

My FNSI accomplished an enormous amount of progress.... 
              all  44 inches of it !!!

Hope yours was better!

Well it isn't even dinner time yet on Friday evening here in the states, so do it again today, and maybe you will have better luck with it! You were just a day ahead of all the rest of us. :D

How frustrating. Sometimes you just can't get the result you set out to. But at least you made progress in the end.

Maria said...

Sometimes it's better to leave it and come back to it later...but do I take my own advice??? probably not! lol I'm sure when you go back to that project it'll all work beautifully
:-)

Maria said...
