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.........

Easter Stitchin' Here I Come!!

After a couple of VERY busy weeks, we're hauling in the drawbridge (locking the doors!), setting the dragons (brainless-but-friendly dogs!) to guard the castle and pretending we're not here for Easter! Meanwhile ... inside, I'm going to be doing some garden stitchin' and some DVD watchin'! :0) I've already started on my first stitchery block ...

My birds will soon have a bath to play in! :0) Hope you all have a fabulous Easter ... perhaps you're going to spend it stitchin' too! :0) Til next time ...

BEAR HUGS!

CHEERS!

Bear Hugs are the greatest!Thanks!
I just finished my small Bird Bath. It is so neat,love the stitchery. Must make up my mind about the fabric, wish I was into stash using for all projects, because like all I have lots and lots in the boxes :-)
Happy Stitching to you.

hey since you have the luxury of it (because you live in town)order some takeaways for dinner too and that will give you some more stitching time.....

Mmmmm sounds like a good plan, we seem to be having a quiet time as well but great for stitching.

Happy Easter
