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........Not taking any new participants now sorry....

First Block in SKOW

After looking longingly at the book for some time now, I finally made a start the other night.  I completed the cup cakes block - well, the applique part.  Hope to get the stitching finished tonight and get started on one other.  So far behind!!

I really enjoyed doing it and can't wait to get started on some more!

Not the best photo.  I'll do another when I've completed the stitching.  Just needed to prove I've done something!!

Looking forward to holidays after Christmas - intend to take along this project and Dear Jane.  Should get lots of appliqueing done.

Cheers

Marg
