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.........

productive weekend then

 I managed to get a few stitcheries done over the weekend while sitting in the plane on the way to Wellington on Friday evening;
 and back to Timaru last evening,
so put these together this afternoon... I think I am pretty happy with the outcome so far..

I need more hours in my days 'tho, would just love to sit 'til I can get this finished!

Enjoy your week... and your stitching
