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.........

Congrats

Hi All just wanted to pop in and say WOW you have all done amazing jobs with your quilts .I have been slowly plugging along on my quilt and thought I would share a pic of my progress . Because I am so far behind I have decided to do all the stitchery and then put it together. This way I can be sure the fabric I am using will be spread out evenly through the quilt. I am only using what I have so will just add to the mix as I go .
I cant wait to see what  fabric you all pick for your  next quilts
hugs Beth
