Here are my June and July blocks, I have had a few interruptions since middle of June, Iwent to the Hunter Valley to play golf for 5 days, then it was school holidays and a visit from 4 grandchildren, then we took them back to Sydney. I am so pleased to be back on track and I am drawing up my August stitchery today.
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.........
2014 we had the year off..............
5th SAL 2015..........inspired to continue we are doing another quilt project.....Anni Downs newest quilt Natures Journey.....
6th SAL 2017.............A Holly Cottage Christmas by Michelle Ridgway.......once again the pattern is in an affordable book so it is easy for everyone to join in...........and you can raid your stash for the fabrics........or lash out and buy a the whole lot........this SAL will be run by Fiona aka Bubz Rugz and Raewyn........

I love your fabrics. Did you use some vintage Debbie Mumm? It is hard to find Debbie Mumm in fabric stores now. Great job.Lee
Hi Dale, Like your colour combination in your block! Really looks good! Also must say I love your quilt pictured at the start of your blog. Was this made from a kit? Happy stitching. Lynda C.
