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.....

August done....

I went away for a few days and took my applique with me only to discover I had not cut enough so this morning I quickly did 6 more and sewed them on.....

Glad I could make it in time......


... it's surprisingly big with these borders on....

Thanks everyone.. so nice to sew with you all and see so many different ones ... and they all look fantastic...

You were very speedy.....a few of us on Sunday thought it would make a good sized wall hanging.....wonder if Chookyblue would let me get away with that???

No way Susan after all the effort of the little blocks around the sides you can't waste them.......
