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....

Thank you for allowing me to join in

I was very excited this am to read that I am now able to join the S-A-L group of eager sewing ladies. I had enquired about joining, but realised I had to have a blog. With Chooky's very patient assisitance, I now have a blog and am learning to do posts, take photos to add to the blog etc.
So now I can start on the quilt as well. I had actually bought the book at the Darling Harbour quilt show in June 2011--- put it aside to one day start the quilt! Now I have no excuse but to start the quilt.
I will have to look at my fabric stash--- which is growing everytime I look at it-- and choose my fabrics.
I am looking forward to joining a lovely bunch of ladies with the same interests.
Thank you for allowing me to be part of the group.
Cheers,
Yvonne
