Garden of Quilts Stitch Along Schedule
We will be stitching this project in parts, focusing on different sections over the course of the year.

This schedule is meant to be a guide. You are always welcome to stitch faster, slower, or out of order. Kimberly will be stitching along with everyone, starting with Part One of the stitch along. Her plan is to stitch two to three flowers each month, enjoying the process and fitting stitching in when she can.
She is stitching her Garden of Quilts Cross Stitch on 14-count Pale Gray Gingham by Fabric Flair, and she’s making a few personal color substitutions:
- Light greens: Four Leaf Clover
- Dark green: Little Sprout
- Spools: Brown Hen

Hello –
In Floss Tube 242 Kimberly selected 14 count Lori Holt Feed Sack as fabric rather than Pale Grey Gingham.
Just curious about the change. Thanks !!!
Also wondering why the fabric change. Now it looks like she will be changing all the thread to match the new fabric choice.
