I know I am behind but I aim to catch up quickly!! I have stitched lots of the squares but have not assembled the blocks as yet as the end of the year became fairly hectic!! Yesterday I assembled block D and was really happy with how it turned out!
Then .... it was all excitement as I stitched blocks D and C together! I'm really pleased with how the quilt is coming together and very inspired by all the finished tops on display already! Hope to have another block or two assembled today! This is really how a New Year should start - lots of sewing time!!
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...............
