This is how I spent my FNSI.
I started lots of projects.. Then I spent my weekend slow stitching my crazy patchwork item.
Monday I was at my Gisborne group and finished off some of these projects.
Then today at the Kilmore Quilters group I finished off more.....
Here they are...
PROJECT 1
8 x baby Bibs with 50" of bindings on each one.
GO BINDING BLITZ
I bought a lovely towelling bath towel/sheet for $5 and got the 8 bibs out of. I have been making these for years. They are great because the Velcro ones get filled with fluff and the Velcro doesn't stick. With the left over circle I will be making some nursing pads.
PROJECT 2
2 x receiving blankets.
I used Minky for the first time. As cute as it looks I think I will just do flannelette in the future. I think it will lay flatter.
I followed a tutorial from here

PROJECT 3
4 x Teddy Bear Pin Cushions. These are so cute.
I am making some gifts for Xmas and some trade table items. These are so cute and I got the idea from here
