So here you can see my efforts in cutting all those pieces....mmm not sure how I will go at this random putting it together but liking my first block so far.
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.........
Where are we now.....
4th SAL 2013...is numerous smaller projects from the previous 2 books Tis the Season and Some Kind of Wonderful plus some projects from Red Home by Natalie Bird approx 60 ladies stitching together.........
2014 we had the year off..............
5th SAL 2015..........inspired to continue we are doing another quilt project.....Anni Downs newest quilt Natures Journey.....
6th SAL 2017.............A Holly Cottage Christmas by Michelle Ridgway.......once again the pattern is in an affordable book so it is easy for everyone to join in...........and you can raid your stash for the fabrics........or lash out and buy a the whole lot........this SAL will be run by Fiona aka Bubz Rugz and Raewyn........

Finally can I have an A please!!!!
Well they say slow and steady wins the race, well I am not going to win, but try as I might I will catch up!! I have spent some time stitching, let's just say not only the GJ seems I have got hooked on the Tis the Season book too, as well as my other BOM Life is Beautiful - yep totally over committed and I love it....and well " the Girls" by Brownyn Hayes is all hand stitched, just to find more time at the machine to finish putting the blocks together.
Proud to share my block A and finally get to ask, CAN I PLEASE HAVE AN A ......feel like i am finally on the board!!!
