FeBruaRy FnwF

Last night I spent some quality time
with my friends in my cubbyhole.
Were YOU there with me?
I hope so...

I recently purchased a new rotary cutter to take to guild and Tuesday group so I thought a new cutter fob was in order. Simple, easy and quick... just the right project to start off the night! Now I'll always be able to find it in my bag.

I then made a baby bib for a new born. It was really quick to put together and is a perfect size for a NeWBorN. I have other sizes and colours that I want to make... but I will place this one in my NaNNa BoX for now... and add the others later.


I also prepared some embroidery to take away with me... all traced ready to go...
you know the saying... idle hands... !

I hope you all had a great night in with FriEnDS this month. Grab a coffee and go around to visit all the other FnwF-ers and see what lovelies they created!
See you next month...

Thanks for hosting another great night! Hope your Nanna Chest is huge - I think it might need to be :)

Susan said...

You will soon need a bigger Nanna box for all your goodies. It was a great night.

Narelle said...

That's a great idea to put a fob on your cutter.
Adorable baby bib :)

Katherine said...

I was there too LOL. Had a great night stitching and sewing and stuffing. Love the bib. It is a great design and so much better than the tie up ones when my girls were little. The cutter fob is also lovely. Off to get busy because I know that saying too. Although the hands are not quite idle doing a blog hop this morning lol.

CathyC said...

I was there too ;-) such a nifty looking rotary cutter, and those bibs are just too cute ;-)

Cheers, Anita.

Cute Cute fob and bib. I am new to your blog...well, kind of, LOL. I saw your disappearing nine patch tutorial and saved it to my favorites, then started visiting your blog and wondering why you weren't posting...thing is, I had saved the tutorial and not the blog website so...am I embarrassed? YUP!!! But since I'm in my 60's I'll just write it off to a senior moment (aka: Brain Fart) and start from here. I've been wandering through your past post and really enjoying myself. Glad I finally caught up with you, **hanging head in shame** Big Hugs...

What a darling cutter fob! Such a great idea too, I'm always having to search through my sewing bag to find it!
I love the bib too! The fabric is so fun!

Thanks for a lovely FNWF Cheryll. I love your little bibs and the fob. I had a wonderful night, sewing away on Maisy's teddy quilt and listening to my iTunes - thankfully our weather has cooled off just a little so I'm back in the sewing room - I'm having a "Saturday afternoon sewing without friends" :-)

Leanne said...

Lovely projects Cheryll, well done.

Brenda said...

I just finished my FNWF. I spent the evening cutting 2 1/2 squares and another project for this weekends sewing. Love that I have 2 or 3 projects to work on now and do not have to take time to cut. Cut fob, I have never thought of that. Would also be great when everyone you sew with has the exact same rotary cutter.
