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

I think I can, I think I can...

Sorry to say I am not finished...hope to be by Saturday Midnight (and that's local time Chookyblue).

But some progress... I have realised that all my small squares have a square border and some should be round, so I will just swap them with blocks in the right month later on...


So, even if you are not finished like me - jut put up a short post and let us know you are working on it...otherwise Whip Cracker #1 will be on your case.....just sayin' . . .

Will I do the 2015...or 201 and leave a gap??

Lovely looking blocks Susan...I also did circles instead of squares as you say can put them aside for. Another month.

Going well...square/circle does it really matter as long as it all works out in the end...really like the background fabric you've used for the basket block and your use of a proper star...
