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.........

Beautiful Kate! The Best friends is one of my favourites too...I did the prep work for this one yesterday and added some broderie anglaise in the skirt for a different look.

Oh Kate, I love your best friends... I have a very special friend in mind for this block. I will be making one into a cushion for a very dear friend of mind :)

It's good to see your Best Friends block. I'm working on mine right now and didn't have my placement quite right. I've sewn the face and dress of the left girly and was trying to keep them apart. Now I see that isn't the case, they're hugging. I have stitched our names on mine.
