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.........

Ready to go.......

Hi Everyone!

I am really excited to start stitching with you all this year! Seems like I really only get a chance to hand stitch lately, and by participating with you all, I will get the motivation to actually get it done lol!

I have all my stitcheries traced out ready to go, and fabrics chosen:


I really like the 'original'.... Something a bit different for Xmas - Red and Pink! So, I chose fabrics similar. And, looking at what others have chosen, WOW, you girls have chosen some beautiful fabrics..... They will all look wonderful!
Thanks Chookyblue for allowing me to participate xx
