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...............

Don't worry...I have not starated my TIS either....still waiting for my pattern...must be caught up in the Canadian Customs office! Argh!!! Since I am new to the SAL and the BLOG world, I was not aware of the GJ that you girls are all so feverishly stitching away on but I did have my cousin hunt down the pattern in Brisbane and send it on over to me...can you believe I got that pattern before my TTS pattern! Go figure!! Ah well, I will go at my own pace on the GJ and work like crazy to catch up on the TTS when I get it. So dont give up on me yet Chookyblue....I will catch up in no time flat!

I'm so glad I wasn't doing the GJ... or I'd be on of 'those' that are in trouble! ;)

You girls are awesome and so inspiring.
