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....

Finished blocks for March

Finished my blocks for this month, I didn't realise that I had to add the borders as well until I was re-reading the sidebar the other day :)  at least they are completed now.


While I was doing the block borders I cut the fabric for the outside borders, binding and backing as well, this way I know that I have that part of the quilt ready and I won't run out of fabric.


 Maybe another border in red will give it an extra spark, there's still plenty of time to play around with fabric choices.
