Starting Today!!

I have been inspired to join this group because I have had "A Gardener's Journal" for a while now on my list of "things to do" (it's a very long list!!). Although I have been away for a month and am starting a little late, I hope to catch up with you all soon! I have chosen my fabrics from my stash and decided to stitch all the patterns with DMC 221. I'm looking forward to keeping up with everyone's progress and being inspired to finish on time!! Thanks to Chookyblue, Peg and Dale for gathering this group together!
