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

I've made a start!

I made a start at the weekend, finally got it together and just pulled some fabric together, and hey presto. It helped that we had a few trips over the weekend, so several hours in the car, and stitching heaven!
and this morning, while I  was musing over my breakfast cuppa, and the paper, I had a sudden thought that these fabrics would be just great!!
So, in business... as they say....

have a fun week, Shiree

Shiree - they are beautiful and cheerful. I can't wait to see your thread choice.

oops your thread choice is above and looks perfect. I missed it because I was distracted by your fabrics!

gorgeous fabrics. Did you use different coloured threads for your fabric? It looks like it on my computer....they look great whatever way they are stitched!
Happy Stitching, Susie
