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.........

D is Done & Dusted...

Ta Dah!  Presenting...drum roll please.....Block "D"!!!...


...not only within the specified month but before the month ran out of days....it's an August miracle!! (ha ha ha)

I don't know if I'm just getting used to reading Anni's instructions for putting the blocks together or if this was one was particularly easy but it went together like a dream...no unsewing...no what the?...nothing...just sew and iron...easy peasy...hope the rest of the blocks have taken notes from this one on how to behave!

Catching up on the posts for the past week this morning, awesome going ladies...so motivating to see everyone's work...

Happy stitching...
Annette

awesome work, your on a roll. For some reason or another I too found this one easier to put together. Who knows, maybe we can get ahead of ourselves - now wouldn't that impress Miss Chookyblue?
