Well today was the last day of my annual leave (sob, sob) I still have the weekend though but that'll go in the blink of an eye.
I chose today to buckle down and put my Gardener's Journal top together
I had joined in with Chookyblue's Stitchalong back in 2010 and I procrastinated so much about this quilt that I didn't finish it on time, so here we are in 2012 and I'm just finishing the top. I'll get myself some wadding and finish it this year, really I will!

Love the colours you have used Jo - it looks lovely!
Well done Jo, it looks great.
Looks great Jo, another one on my list!
Great job Jo! I went back to work this week and by about 10am on Monday it was like.."break....what break?" Looking forward to three weeks in March road-tripping around Vic/NSW.....Tassie will be next on the list!
Congrat's on the finish Jo! It's beautiful! Enjoy your last couple of days off. Indeed, they go by a blink.
Hugs
WoooHooo!! Great finish. I remember when that all started and I was going to join in. I have the book and I even had the fabric out but I was worse than you, I didnt even start.
Take the next w 2 days real slow. Savour the freedom a little longer.
Jo - well done!! The finish line is in sight!!
Well done Jo, you will be thrilled. Mine is still just stitcheries and thats it!!
Lots of work Jo and it will be sensational when quilted. Nice to have it all done :) Hugs Vicki x
I'm so impressed with your quilt top finish. I didn't get past buying the book and fabric!
YAY one step closer to having it FINISHED.
What will you do with it?
Hang it or use it?
This is such a lovely quilt Jo - maybe it will be finished for show and tell in March!
I looks terrific, Jo! Doesn't it feel great to clean the decks of old projects? I should do it more often!
Take care,

You go girl! Isn't it a great feeling when an old UFO comes together and has a life. Quilt looks gorgeous. Have a super sewing year in 2012.
Well done it is a big finish it may be a little late but a pat on the back is called for.
Clap clap...:O))) I still have almost all the blocks to stitch.. how about that?? ;O)
Wish you all the luck and want to wish you a wonderful 2012!!
Happy New Year Jo, I can see you have been having a delightful time over the last few weeks. Enjoy..

Gorgeous! Love that range of fabrics and they are just beautiful for A Gardeners Journal.
A great finish to your annual leave to have the top together. Will you quilt it or send it out to be quilted?
