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

Summertime ...

My July block is done :-) 
Jippi ... Fun block to needleturn. I had to bring it outside to take the photo in the garden,the sun made it look pale. Maybe my whole quilt will turn out to be pale.... A summer quilt maybe... 
Here in Norway we are in the middle of our summer holidays, and lucky me got all of my grandchildren at home now. 4 at the age from 0 to 6 :-)  F. at 1 year had to try the "quilt" when it was on the grass...
I hope he liked it ;-))
Now I have to start on the August job... 
Hugs ;-)
