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.........

Slow and steady,
she goes....just traced off a few more blocks, ready to stitch, getting there slowly, maybe not so steadly, but I am getting there.
wow someone listens to me............they don't here..........LOL......keep it altogether in your sewing bag and if you rush out you could just grab the bag........don't give up you will get it finished.........
look at those stitcheries! If you just spend a little time cutting out the fabrics and machine stitching, you will have some blocks finished in no time! (it's the stitcheries that take the longest...trust me LOL) Great job Sonia...and thanks for keeping us updated...love seeing your progress xxx

Remember the Hare & Tortoise? The Tortoise won in the end...enjoy the journey...
You are doing great! A little bit here...a little bit of stitching there and before you know it you are not only caught up, but you will be ahead!
Thanks girls, slowly going...finished another two stitcheries this week.
Oh, I like the color of your background material.
