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.........

I just realized that perhaps I have an extra day being in the US...let's see..Monday is the 28th here so Tuesday would be the day to start...I might make it. I got all of the binding on or at least pinned on..one side to stitch then I can do the hand work this weekend....I copied Tis the Season patterns and have my light box out ready to trace...bought both red and blue, and plan to do one of each as I go in case I want to do the other items in the book.
Onward!

Just wondering if you have room for one more to join in. If not that is OK, as I have left it rather late. All the best.
