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

I am attempting to make to make two of these quilts designed by our very talented amazing Michelle….

One for each of my grandbabies families….

I do struggle with needle turn, so I am doing the good old buttonhole stitch…

Have a fab day….Peg
