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

A Finish....Yeah!!


I was given the pleasure of quilting Lynda's quilt


Lynda from (AussieNeedleNut) has done a fantastic job on this quilt her stitching is
beautiful, she has kindly let me put this up as she has 
given up on blogging (technical issues).

I quilted what I call hodge podge all over, meandering between
the stitcheries and then a feathered border.


You can see the border better in this shot.


So heres hoping Lynda loves my quilting, she hasn't seen it
yet as DH and I are heading to the country to
deliver it this weekend.

She has told me its OK to post so she can get a sneak peak.

So now I will get on and quilt mine and hopefully soon I can post
my finish...yeah!!!

Happy Stitching!

Mandy
