I e-mailed Chooky last night to ask if we were allowed to blog about the new SAL. I was wanting to get started but still waiting for my book to arrive. It was posted on Monday evening in New Zealand and it arrived this morning here in England, just two and half days later. WOW!
Has anyone started yet? Just wandering which methods of applique everyone was going to use and your choices of fabric? I am being nosey. I have a lot of Moda fabrics that I have been saving to use for a special project. I have been collecting Moda for several years now. I am going to use them for this new quilt. On my next post I will upload a picture of my fabrics. I off now to read my new book and get planning on the new SAL.
P.S. Chooky, great choice of book!

You are so lucky getting your mail so quickly. In NZ where I live we struggle to get normal mail sent from one side of the island to the ohter in five days.
Good luck with your stitching.

No started yet and I have some Moda fabrics too, perhaps I will use them! I will decide next week: I want to buy something else. I think Moda fabrics have to been used for a special project, of course! I perfectly agree.
there is machine raw egde applique, needle turn, blanket stitch (hand or machine) lots of choices.......looking forward to seeing what fabrics you choose....
It is exciting and I have been wondering what everyone choices are going to be also! Looking forward to seeing your fabrics, I will be doing blanket stitch on my machine...which works better for me as I have lots of hand stitching already to do with other projects. I have my fabrics sorted so hope to share a pic over the weekend!
