Just thought I had better let you know where I'm at with this SAL. Unfortunately I have not met the deadline, even though I set myself a goal at the beginning of September to get back on track and finish on time. My blocks are sitting on the coffee table waiting for me to do the back stitching. Once I get going it really shouldn't take all that long, so I will set myself a new deadline - I will have the top done by Christmas at the very latest. I have no idea what to do with it after that, as I've never made a quilt before, and I don't know who I would get to do the quilting. But that is another chapter. One thing at a time. First of all I need to buy another pair of magnifying glasses, because I'm stuffed without them! Then watch me go! I owe it to myself, Chookyblue and everyone who has participated in this SAL to pull my finger out and get this quilt finished. And I will - promise!!
Congratulations to all the finishers, and all the best to those of us who still have WIPs. We can do it!

Yes Helen - you CAN do it! Good Luck & enjoy it.
keep plugging away Helen if this is your first quilt you are doing well.....don't give up.......get it to the top stage and we'll help you out after that.........keep showing us your progress though........
If you want someone else to quilt it, check with your local quilt shop, they usually have a list.
Keep on going...I use the magnifying glasses for needle work, also...lost without them.
