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.........

Late but busy working and learning

This is a learning curve for me and I am enjoying the process, but between work and another project that has to be done I am a bit slow.  I hope that March will be on time, now that I know what I'm doing.   I have broken out my silk threads to applique and playing in my scraps is making this a quilt fit for me.  Any tips on getting nice points on my hearts? ;).

Peg you are doing a great job

Looking great Peg - th4e only tip I can share is that you sew to the point, do a couple of stitches right at the point and then fold the side under - probably some you-tubes out there since words are not all that helpful sometimes.
