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.........

5th SAL 2015..........inspired to continue we are doing another quilt project.....Anni Downs newest quilt Natures Journey.....

Alas.....

...my March blocks won't be finished on time :( ..... although I had every intention of getting them done as I am really enjoying this project it just isn't going to happen....
March became an extremely busy month at work with numerous deadlines having to be met  - one would think that coming home to sew would help but no.... I was too tense to even think about sewing.... weekends became busy as well mainly for family reasons - and so the month of March started to slip away..... on the positive side though, I did start as you can see.....

............ hopefully I should catch up again through April!

 Am enjoying seeing what everyone else is up to - very inspiring!

 Happy Stitching
