Meg's progress..................

Well the whip has been cracking and I have been working on my SAL quilt. I have loved working on this quilt, the blocks are making you think all the time as to how you can make it more personal for you. 
 I have the quilt together now, a little more updated from the photo below. 
I just need to put the strips across the top. 
My favourite book is going to be Anne of Green Gables and I have changed the Cat to a Dog. 
 The case needs to have some badges made 
(hope we see the quilt top photo very soon)
I have also finished to SAL Christmas quilt that was worked on last year.  Well not quite finished it is completed as a top.
