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.........

Block A's done and dusted!
Yes that's right, I'm still keeping up to date. Block A is now complete Yey!
A couple of minor alterations to suit the jelly roll and charm pack I'm using but all in all it looks pretty much the same. So now it's onwards to Block C!
way to go Jo......love your fabrics and yes I put the next block as the 3rd one to get it over and done with and it has lots of stitching........now you can get a head start if you want.........lol.....sidebar updated........
Looks fantastic Jo - I just have to finish of the Potting Shed and I will be able to finish off the block as well. Block G is also done - I must post some photos.
Looks great! Mine is almost together. Picture this: I'm sitting at my machine. The first strip with the potting shed is done and most of the pieces that go with the weather van are done. I'm frantically reading and looking but I can't find where it tells me about those border strips around the vane. Nothing I have cut fits. Well, I must have been tired at that point because it too a while for that light bulb to come on and send me back to the cutting guide and those extra pieces. Duh! Its all in the game, I guess. Blessings and happy stitchin' Mama Bear
