1st SAL.....Peg, Dale and I committed to stitching Anni Downs - A Gardener's Journal in March. 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....March 2010 -March 2011...........
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...............
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.........
Where are we now.....
4th SAL 2013...is numerous smaller projects from the previous 2 books Tis the Season and Some Kind of Wonderful plus some projects from Red Home by Natalie Bird approx 60 ladies stitching together.........

I finished my first block!
I pulled a set of fat quarters out of my small stash and was able to finish block G today. I even finished stitching next months blocks and hope to get them put together next weekend. :)
I'm glad you posted your block. I have picked similarly coloured pastel material.I've been fussing and worrying about the overall look.I thought it might turn out too blendy. Now I won't worry because yours look great.
Very delicate colours! Looks so nice,I think.I am also nearly done with the stitching of block A. But still waiting for some fabric that I have ordered. Lucky you finding something of your stash aswell:-) Happy Quilting.
