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.........

Update

Well, after a couple of weeks the momentum has returned! 
I cut all those little squares but then fell into a hole and Nature's Journey was no longer happening :( ..... but yesterday the sewing machine was out and humming away as I was on the "Journey" again.... a little way to go but there will be further updates later in the week!
And, how inspiring are those lovely finished tops (or quilts)!

 Happy Stitiching

oh no...so was this a 'hurt yourself' hole or do you mean you needed to take a break from sewing your NJ? If you did indeed actually physically fall into a hole, I sure hope you are okay now. If you took a break then good for you....thats' okay...take one day at a time. Soon you will be finished your quilt and will be so happy with your Journey! Good Luck

Probably like a lot of us - too many projects on the go - but sometimes you just need a break...welcome back!!
