1st SAL.....Peg, Dale and I committed to stitching Anni Downs - A Gardener's Journal in March.

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.........

Getting Organized!

I have really enjoyed seeing what fabrics you ladies have chosen for tis the season...it does get exciting when we start playing with fabrics! I will be tracing my stitcheries today and start stitching tonight!



I needed to get organized first and have used my Gardeners Journal project binder to keep everything in. Handy having everything together. Inside pocket holds the little book and list of stitcheries for each month. Plastic sleeves for any completed stitcheries or blocks, threads etc. Have considered making another binder using a stitchery from the book...will see how I go!
My Christmas present to me this year was the Tis The Season book, and the first project I made was the little scrapbook album...still yet to be filled!

My fabric choice...apricots and reds!

Looking forward to stitching along with you all!

Bye For Now

Beautiful fabric choices..I love the little book and might make one of those too....your stitchery notebook is a great idea. I might try to organize mine that way.
Happy Stitching,
