Hello everyone and Yes I am excited

Hi everyone, I am excited to be a part of this SAL - Tis The Season. I have sorted out some reds and such from my stash and I intend to only use what is in my stash too and I am using white squares for the little stitchery blocks.
No doubt I will find more later but these are ones I quickly found....

I will trace out a few of the blocks and take them with me to Brissie to stitch up there when us Gumnutters have our sit and sew times. Although I dont think we will get too many of those times in. Not long now until I will be winging my way to Brissie....Oh I am getting excited!
I am excited to be a part of this lovely group and I just hope I keep up with everyone - I think I will *grin*
Dawn and I will spur each other on hehehe
Happy sewing everyone
Hugs to all......Vicki from The Pickledish Patch
