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.........

Great Weekend

Hi all, I hope you are enjoying the Stitch-A-Long.....
I had a great weekend doing one of "My Favourite Things"...
Watching Jacky Mister play Rep Basketball in Griffith....
His team has made the finals on the top of the ladder...
Here he is in action....
I think I should call him :"Jumping Jack Flash"
Nothing like 2 days on the side of a basketball
court to get some stitching done....
I have done some more blocks for my Favourite things Quilt....
"Family"
"Home"
That chimney smoke is just too cute.....
"Gardening all Day"
Hmmm....My garden could do with some of this...
"Butterflies Fluttering"
Still no rows joined but at least a few more Blocks ready to go...
Stitching night with the girls tonight so
I hope to get a couple more finished...
Until next time, Happy Stitching

Kate
