This is my first time participating in the Friday Night Sew In.
I know I said I wasn't going to start my Orca Bay Mystery Quilt until I got last week's and this week's We Can Do It Skill Builder Sampler blocks done...but I just couldn't resist. My husband AND 4-year-old son went to bed at 8:30pm!!! That gives me tons of sewing time. I think I could cut and sew and cut and sew and cut and sew a ton of step one of Bonnie Hunter (Quiltville) Orca Bay. These are my colors: Neutrals, Yellow, Orange, and Green. I hope I read the first instruction right. When Bonnie says "black" on her quilt, I guess it's "yellow" for my quilt. I'm sure it will be pretty as long as I use contrasting colors. Here's my stack:
Here's what I have cut so far...
I need 448 PAIRS of these puppies! Guess I better quit blogging and start cutting. Whew.

Welcome to FNSI! I hope you had a great time -- 448 pairs! I am tired just thinking about it, but it will be so satisfying when you finish it.
Looks like a fantastic first FNSI. Here's to many more! Join all your friends from around the globe to sew on a special friday night. :)
Welcome to FNSI. I haven't been drawn in by Orca Bay yet, but it's probably only a matter of time.
Welcome to FNSI. Wow seeing off the family at 8.30 gave you a lovely long sewing evening to yourself, well organised! Loved seeing what you were working on, see you again next month.
