1st SAL.....Peg, Dale and I committed to stitching Anni Downs - A Gardener's Journal in March 2010. We have set the time frame as completed March 2011. I blogged about this on my blog thinking maybe one or 2 others may join us and lots of girls indicated an interest so I decided to start this blog where we can all encourage each other to meet the goals set along the way................
2nd SAL ......well so many of the girls wanted to continue on with another project and some new girls joined us and now approx 91 girls are stitching Natalie Bird's Tis the Season. March to Sept 2011
Where are we now.....3rd SAL....many girls want to stick with the SAL so now we have moved onto Anni Downs Some Kind of Wonderful - My Favourite Things Quilt.......Oct 2011-Oct 2012............Welcome.....Chookyblue

No, I didn't have any trouble accepting. Maybe blogger is having a bad day? Love the Whimsicals fabric you're using to go with the stitcheries Andrea! Your quilt is going to be lovely! :0)

Maragret has plenty to stitch with for now..........everyones quilts are going to look so different with all the lovely fabric choices........

Grethe said...

No trouble in accepting from this part of the world either :-)
After some serious thinking,I have deceided to do all the drawings on the white-tea-dyed fabric first of all.I see that you have done that, Andrea.Good idea! I think somebody else suggested that earlier too. Suddenly found out that otherwise the white fabric would lay about for ages.So after baby-sitting tomorrow I`ll start,unless I am totally worn out.

LOVE TO STITCH BEE TREE DESIGNS said...

This is one great project you've started. Love the colors you've chosen. Can't wait to see what everyone does. Do you mind if I just watch-a-long instead of stitching along? :) cyndi

None for me either. Apparently there were issues in Europe over the weekend, so a northern blogger friend told me. Sorted now though.

No trouble here over the ditch in New Zealand either. Stitcheries going well and am yet to decide on fabrics for piecing. Think I will go with tone on tones as I have a lovely floral piece for the border.
happy stitching
