1st SAL.....Peg, Dale and I committed to stitching Anni Downs - A Gardener's Journal in March 2010. We have set the time frame as completed March 2011. 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................
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
Where are we now.....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......Welcome.....Chookyblue........Not taking any new participants now sorry....

Read-A-Thon...

Whew! Stitch-A-Long Blog Read-A-Thon completed...just finished reading the 51 52 (Pia posted while I was competing) posts that happened while my back was turned in December & January (work stuff kept me out of my sewing space)...

Ladies...you are all Awesome!...lots of lovely blocks, completed tops, completed quilts!...all beautiful...commenting on 51 52 posts would take an age so to you all...well done...I love your work...cue applause and cheering!...

And me?...I'm working away on the three ladies and I have to tell you...I am not having a good time with them...all the other stitcheries I've really enjoyed but not this one...maybe because progress has been painfully slow as I've been doing it while exhausted and too much other stuff going on.  The orchard I've saved until last - it is my stitchery finish line...the patches are waiting patiently in the project box for these stitcheries to be ready so that they can be joined into blocks...hoping I'll have something to contribute soon...

Happy stitching...
Annette
