Howdy all!
It's been a tough winter so far - my family has suffered a loss and some medical trials. On the bright side, after months of practicing, I have completed my very first needleturn block (my goal in this project is to learn needleturn). Unfortunately, by the time I get home, it's too dark to take a pic. Hopefully, will share by this weekend (I'm SO geeked - it was so much fun!)
Keep your posts coming, you are inspiring me to stitch! Thank you Cbooky for my reprieve!
Cheers!
Elisa

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

I sm sorry for your troubles, but glad to hear that patchwork is helpling to keep you going. Looking forward to the pictures.
Yes, glad you are still with us! Not all of us are finished. Working here still!
I know a lot of us are learning to do needle turn for the first time and there are lots of different ways of doing it. I'm doing the method where you iron freezer paper to the top or right side and leave it as you turn under the edge to stitch, then pull it off once the piece is attached to the background.
Sorry, you've had trials during this season. We're all behind you on this. Blessings,
Mama Bear
