First up is my stitchery for January...I put borders on and am waiting for my thread to arrive to be able to quilt it this coming week. This was a fun little project and now I am ahead of the Christmas rush for next year. I turned the stitchery into a mini quilt for next year. Next up is my fabrics that I am mulling over for the SAL...I will be using one solid background in either the blue or green dots...
I also need to decide on which set of fabrics to use for the quilt itself...hopefully that will be accomplished this week.
Fabric choice #1:
Fabric choice #2
Hope to make my choices soon so I can get started on this project.
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...............
3rd SAL....many girls want to stick with the SAL so now we have moved onto Anni Downs Some Kind of Wonderful - My Favourite Things Quilt.......Oct 2011-Oct 2012.........
Where are we now.....
4th SAL 2013...is numerous smaller projects from the previous 2 books Tis the Season and Some Kind of Wonderful plus some projects from Red Home by Natalie Bird approx 60 ladies stitching together.........
2014 we had the year off..............
5th SAL 2015..........inspired to continue we are doing another quilt project.....Anni Downs newest quilt Natures Journey.....
6th SAL 2017.............A Holly Cottage Christmas by Michelle Ridgway.......once again the pattern is in an affordable book so it is easy for everyone to join in...........and you can raid your stash for the fabrics........or lash out and buy a the whole lot........this SAL will be run by Fiona aka Bubz Rugz and Raewyn........

Someties deciding is the hardest part.
Good job on the wall hanging...
Lovely bright stitchery finish!! I do like the brights in your fabric choices but when I scrolled down to the second choice the brights lost favour!!lol! Good luck with making your decision - although you cannot go wrong with either!!
love both choices, can't you mix them together?
That's the hardest decision when making anything; once that's done everything else falls into place xx
Very good.
