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.........

Merry Christmas Everyone

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas with a lot of fun, family & friendship.
I spied this lovely Christmas tree over on mamcjt's blog and thought it summed up Christmas in Australia.


If you have never visited that blog - its worth a look, She creates the most amazingly artistic quitlts - she is in the current Homespun magazine - her quilt is the beach house one on the front cover.  And you should look for the ladies she has done too!.
