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.........

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.........

A Special Meet-up

Maria (Life on the Block) was visiting Queensland so we organised for her to spend Sunday with a group I belong to called Sunday Stitchers.
A few of us are doing the SAL so we compared progress:

Jeanette, Maria, Lynda (trying to hide her block) and me (Susan).
Unfortunately Noela wasn't there when we took this picture - she had been on a retreat - but her block is looking lovely as well.

Happy Sewing everyone - and if you are visiting Brisbane/Gold Coast we would love to meet you!!
