Well done , you are off to a flying start!! No hot weather here!
Yay i love that fabric.... Cant wait for Autumn i think the best season by far :)
Oh wow, you already have your borders on, that's a good idea, gives you a bit more to hold on to when you stitch.
I think Tassie has skipped Autumn and we've gone straight into winter, it's a bit chilly here today. Great start on your Tis the Season! I'm a bit naughty and have made a start too, just couldn't help myself!
We have not had any summer much here in tassie. Your are all ready to go
WooHoo! Really looking forward to Tis the Season!
It is REALLY cold here in Tassie!

What summer are you talking about ?? it has not arrived here in Tassie yet, Great I can get started I have been a good girl this time :):)
I will try to stitch my first block in Queensland :) Its cool here today for the first day of Autumn....I love Autumn :) Happy stitching :)
Its quite cool here in Victoria. The wind makes it feel even cooler right now.
I hope it cools down for you soon!~
Come visit me if you want cool
I have just lit the fire
We have had a really cool summer - only about 3 - 4 days warm enough to go swimming outside!
Send some down this way so my tomatoes and fruits can ripen!
The block looks great, nice vibrant borders. If you want summer I'm happy to send you a few degrees here from Perth. Three weeks of humid mid to high 30s with a 40 here & there is no fun. We had another freak storm yesterday too. About 8 suburbs had a mini tornado, masses of destruction, winds & rain while all the rest of us saw a few clouds but not a drop of rain - freaky weather! At least cold is great sewing weather. Sweaty & sewing don't mix too well - lol. Tracee xx
Nice start Chooky! Keep it up.
Nice to see you have made a start. I still have to get my fabrics. Hopefully I will do that at the end of this week. Then I'll be raring to go!
Good start...will be watching the progress of this one...
looking good Donna, off to a great start!
hmm n yes sadly we are heaving into autumn as weel, coolish mornings, but if there is no southerly, the day is lovely
oh goodie you ave made a start, that means I can dig mine out and join in
looks good Chooky I am going to get my GJ done before I start...ohterwise I will never get it done...
Your first block looks good. Here we are hoping for some sun and better weather. Spring is coming.
Lovely to see a start! I'm planning on sewing my first stitches today :)
Looking good - I'll be trying to make a start later in the week - the SAL blog has been SO busy with everyones lovely fabric choices. I love the bright colours you're using!
I'm still waiting for my book :(
Love the fabric with the block!
Yea! Let all the fun start Stitch Stitch Stitch Can't wait to start Deb E
This is going to be so cute. I am trying to get a book now so I can stitch this up before Christmas....
Yay!! I'm just waiting on thread and I'll be stitching fast to catch up!!
That's a cute block! Is it really Autumn date wise? I know your seasons are different than mine, but are the dates too? I've never paid attention. Spring will be here on March 21 give or take a couple of hours! lol Cheers!
Yep cool down here this morning but a beautiful day. Like the colours of your stitch along
I think that's going to be very cute! Autumn for your and soon it will be Spring for us...it is gray and gloomy here...typical of late winter!
lookin' good...you'll have to come down south to the coast...we have cooled off too...dzintra
It is going to be very pretty. It is about 72 F (22 C?) here in the Southern U.S.A. today. Perfect weather!
Just have to say that I'm jealous! The list filled before I could get the book...so I'll continue as a spectator.
I'd love to be able to send you some cool from here... more snow forecasted for Monday. I'm ready for spring!
Chooky
do you always piece your blocks before stitcing? is it better that way?
do you use weaveline?
