I have finished my pincushion but with a house full of family and the events of the past week I have only got to downloading my photos this evening .... I changed it a bit as I usually do ... added a button and used a printed fabric rather than piece the top and bottom .... thank you to all of you who have sent messages of support over the past 10 days following the loss of my father in law .... they were greatly appreciated and showed me what a wonderfully caring group of ladies I call my blogging friends .... thankyou ..... Fiona H xxxx
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...............
