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.........

Thanks to all for the motivation

Thanks for your motivation, I couldn't get here without  Chookyblue email's and your kind words. You are a FABULOUS group! It was great to be part of your group:)
I'm sorry that I don't know much English to comment your works and your quilts, congratulations to all for your spectacular works.
I decided to make an label with the country that was my inspiration and motivation, Australia and my own, Portugal.

However,  I can only finish my quilt in November because I don't have padding.
Catch you later.
 Happy stitch
Sofia
