What a great way to finish 2012 with getting my A Gardener's Journal quilt FINISHED! I started way back in 2010 stitching with the original Stitch-A-Long girls, and put my final stitches in to the top at the beginning of 2012. Eventually I got around to sending it off for quilting to the very clever Leeanne at quiltmekiwi who has worked her magic for me. I am so thrilled with the quilting, I never imagined it could be so perfect for this quilt, thanks Leeanne for making my first ever professional quilting experience so awesome!

Thanks to Chookyblue and all the Stitch-A-Long girls for the encouragement, motivation, and inspiration that you all share so willingly, you all helped me get over the finish line on this one.
Till next time ......... happy stitching.......... Nicky xx
