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.........

Only just a little bit late !!!!
I agree with you Kris.... where did June go.... I too had the first 2 blocks done on time but not this one, I will have to pull my socks up for this month so enough of this chatter I'm off to the sewing room to draw up the next block.
Keep up the good work girls we will be finished before you can say ..... stitch-a-long......
Hey Helen! If you find out where June went, let me know ... maybe that's where April and May are hiding too! Tee! Hee! Hee! Your block looks fab. Isn't it just so much fun to see everyone's quilts evolving! :0) Bear Hugs! KRIS
I think this is the longest block to work, so happy for you that it is finished and looking good. I have just started to stitch this block on our combined 2nd quilt.
