1st SAL.....Peg, Dale and I committed to stitching Anni Downs - A Gardener's Journal in March.

My January Project....

Hi! My name is Emily, I'm 16 and from Canada, so I'm probably one of the youngest in this stitch-a-long. I am also Lori of Lolastitchida's daughter if you know my mum. I'm really excited about it, and here is what I have done so far! I have done my stitchery in a slightly variegated blue. I can't wait to hear from everyone else!
