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.........

Quilting done
My GJ has come home again.
My lovely friend Maria did the quilting, now I have to find some fabric for the binding.
Pia, your GJ is beautiful! Unfortunatly I did not get in on that SAL. Just glad to be in on TTS SAL! I have sent for the GJ pattern and will stitch it in between my Tis the Season. I love your fabrics, nice and scrappy! Love it!

CONGRATULATIONS! Lovely quilted by you friend,it looks super, sparkeling with colours,
Now you really can be proud:-)
beautiful Pia...........race you to get the binding done.........I got mine back from the quilter so now onto the binding...........
It looks great...I enlarged it to see the quilting.
I think using that bluish color from the outer border would look good for the binding.
