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...............

Shoe bag now a girly girl bag...

 I love this years plan...
So great someone( Chookyblue) has thought of what to make 
and I just do it... easy as.
Each month I can make the project as a gift for
 someone... easy to do - no thinking on what to make.
 I think it's a great plan. Do you?


 This months project was either the shoe bag from the
 'Some Kind of Wonderful' book by Annie Downs
 or the thread catcher from the Red Book.
 I have decided most of the projects will be for little girls
 maybe some big girls too...
So I made  the shoe bag this month
 minus the stitchery this time..and with girly fabrics.
 I just love the freshness of it...
I can now concentrate on next months bag...
 that may be for a big girl...LOL...me!

 Happy Stitching everyone...
 Hugs Dawn x x
