It took me a while to cut out all the cream backgrounds but that is now done and I have finished the first block. I am using the Portebello markets range for the applique. I was going to do needle turn but found it too difficult especially the small bits, so I am blanket stitching instead, much more enjoyable.2010 A Gardener's Journal by Anni Downs..... 2011 Tis the Season by Natalie Bird.... 2012 Some Kind Of Wonderful by Anni Downs......
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

First Block

I was going to do needle turn but found it too difficult especially the small bits, so I am blanket stitching instead, much more enjoyable.
