Are you ready for the weekend? I sure am! It’s been raining and dreary for several days in a row here, so I’ve had even more reason than usual to stay indoors and stitch. Not to mention, we had not one, but two Sit & Stitch sessions back-to-back this week. Needless to say, with all the extra stitch time my productivity rate has been even more crazy than usual, but there’s no complaints here! I’ve accomplished a lot, but there’s always more to do!
Since it’s Friday, if you’re looking for something new to stitch on for the weekend, Thanks to Twilight Stars, I’ve already got you covered! This week the lucky block numbers are #17 and #85!

Thank you to everyone for doing such a great job posting your finished blocks each week… Please keep it up! It’s literally spectacular to see so many beautiful blocks on display all in once place. You should all be extremely proud of your progress! If you haven’t posted yet, you still can. You might even win a prize for it, too! All you have to do is post a photo of your completed blocks each week before the release of the next batch, including the required book Triangle Gatherings and Primitive Gatherings Triangle Paper in the picture. Please also include the hashtag #TwilightStarsQAL in your post! Heidi will choose a winner each week until the end of the QAL, which we will announce during my LIVE show on Thursday. The prize for sharing his block photos for Week #32 goes to, Terri Fullner Uden! Excellent work, Terri! And way to be ahead of the game with your Valentine’s Day décor. Your charm pack and caramels mailed out this morning!

New to Twilight Stars QAL? If so, WELCOME! As always, patterns can be found in my book Triangle Gatherings (required to participate along with a few other items), which can be purchased on the Primitive Gatherings website by clicking HERE. Blocks will be posted every Friday around NOON Central Standard Time, with a correlating blog post shortly after. Block releases can be found both here on the blog and in the “Quilt-Along” area under “Twilight Stars” at http://www.lisabongean.com. Never even heard of Twilight Stars? You can read all about it by clicking HERE. In addition, a full list of details and required supplies can be found at the Twilight Stars Info Page by hitting the button below!

Well friends… Something about the sound of the pouring rain pounding on our steel rooftop is making me want to hang it up for the day, even though it’s not even 3 p.m. yet. Maybe I need to run around the block to get my blood moving! Too bad it’s the WI January Monsoon out there. My luck I’d probably slip in a slush pile and break a leg… I think I’ll skip it.
I hope you all have a great weekend! Are you doing anything fun? How do you cope when Mother Nature has her fits and forces you to stay inside? Let me know in the comments for a chance to win a nice little prize. And speaking of that, congratulations to Terri S. and Sue H.! They are each getting happy mail, just for leaving a comment. It’s that easy (if you think you are one of the lucky winners, please check your email! Heidi will be contacting you to confirm). See you Monday, everyone! ~Lisa
