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
Where are we now.....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............Welcome.....Chookyblue

Well Hi girls.....I am loving see everyone's fabric choices for the new SAL, and well done to all the 'starters'....you really are off to a great start......I have agonised,  pawed thru the stash, gone shopping at the Fair in Brisbane last week, re-agonised (!!!!), and come up with this..........
...........I love the fabrics all laid out in a rainbow .............

..........and I love them all stacked up too...............

So what do you think, girls?........Off to do some tracing.....I think Chooky's made a start....yeeks....if so, she'll be reaching for that whip.............lol.........
