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.........

May ... Hooray!
Instead of "make hay while the sun shines" ... I "stitched while the showers fall".
For the first time I can say I'm finished my blocks early ... I have no idea how that happened. Loving this quilt and this group ... thank you :o)
Your blocks look lovely. The rainy days are the best days to stitch...or do house work...or bake....but stitching always seems to come out on top for me!

They look great Narelle - good feeling to finish early isn't it!
It is so interesting to see the variations in color and prints....makes it look totally different.

How organised you are, thanks for the inspiration.
