super bowl sew in

I’m not at all into sports and my husband isn’t either.

BUT we do want our kids to at least KNOW about football and the superbowl.

I have planned a hexie- super bowl sew in, but the TV will still be on and we’ll make home made pizza like we did last year.

Here’s a few pics of the hexies I’ve made so far

It’s hard to tell how big they are on the design wall, but they are 3″ on each side.

Now I just have these 2 designs so far, but tomorrow I should get more CLUB sets (I’m getting 2)

I don’t know WHAT I’ll make with these….

any ideas?

I’ve seen pillows, bags, hexies turned into squares, hexies appliqued onto blocks.

Here’s a fun blue one.

I should mention again that the fabrics are SCRAPS from a Riley Blake quilt for Mccall’s I’m finishing up- will also hand sew the binding on it tonight!

Here’s 2 more

AND I didn’t show these- I forgot them in the kitchen….

but Michele sent me this pattern- out of the blue! she thought it had my name written all over it with all the owls…. it’s SO cute, I do plan on doing SOMETHING with it- one day.

THANKS Michele!!

Here’s some funnies again from facebook and other places.

I LOVE this one- as I’m only 5ft tall. I said TALL not short 🙂

isn’t this one CLEVER!!??

OOPS! forgot about Sonja, here she is… still snot nosed, but no fever!
