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.........

June July Progress

Lucky I made a good headstart mid June because sewing time vanished for a bit with end of school term and busy with cattle work. Now with a couple "free" days up my sleeve (not counting general hose duties and end of year book work), I hope to make some good progress on both June and July blocks.

So far ...



Ready for applique and stitching ... so happy and really enjoying this project xx

That blue makes a very pretty background for your applique.
