Brenda and the Serial Starter are two very funny ladies whose flosstubes I love. They aren’t the ones who try to be funny but they crack me up. Brenda is more reserve, more methodical. Laura . . oh, my! She buys every chart, the fabric, the floss and she starts so many projects .. hence, the serial starter. Even though they show a ton of new purchases and they cause me to buy way too much, they don’t seem like a paid commercial.
Anyway, they’re starting a Blackbird Designs Stitch Along. It started out going to be the last weekend of April but in this past flosstube, it kinda soundled like it will continue and be a Blackird SAL the last weekend of every month. I could be wrong but I think you can work on WIPs or start something new.
For this one, I think I’m going to stitch American Eagle:

This chart is from the Sweet Land of Liberty booklet. There are several others in there I’d like to stitch also.

There are several Blackbird Designs that I have and would love to stitch so I’ll be happy to do this as an ongoing SAL:
- Christmas Rose
- Oh Joyous Day
- Feast of Friendship
- Moonlight Visitor
- Summer Beaming Forth
- Souvenirs of Summer
The hashtag for the stitch along will be: bbdweekendsal which stands for Blackbird Designs Weekend Stitch Along. I can only remember those things if I understand the acronym.
I’d love to have some of you blog friends join in the stitch along.

Serial Starter – what a perfect name for what I do with quilting projects. Thanks for the chuckle this morning!

I plan to do the SAL too. They are my favorite flosstube to watch.

They have become mine too. I love watching Laura’s expressions!

Just started “In Full Glory” this evening on 22ct hardanger. I’m loving it. This is my first Blackbird Design.
