Take it easy, sensei :)

I'm sorryto hear that you are having carpal tunnel issues...that's never fun! Have you tried using craft gloves? That helps me! Good luck!

That is exactly why having stashes of everything is the best ;3

Once we are finally done with kids rooms, which should hopefully be this weekend, I plan to start on this. I know I'm way behind, but I haven't had the time/motivation to do this bit of stitching at the moment.

Well, you'll be in good company. I haven't started the 2nd block yet and I think enough of us are behind that it's going to become the Autumn SAL soon enough.

I'm really glad to hear this. I've been pumped to be a part of this, but I'll just be getting started on it tonight.

Make that Monday 4th! I've just spent 2 days in a field at an outdoor county fair type thing. I'm so tired!

Back again! :D

OK this last part is up to you guys. You may choose ANY design from the list (see viewtopic.php?f=4&t=16281 for them all in one place) and use it for your last square! If there isn't a pattern of your chosen design available and you need one, just ask and it'll be done for you. :)

"But BMH, what do I do after I've stitched all four squares?"
Whatever you want! Add a border, some embellishments, beads, glitter, anything you like! Or nothing, if that's your thing as well :)

And finally...because this isn't a thing with a deadline, you have lots of time to get it all done. BUT...for anyone who is done by the end of Monday 16th October, there will be a sort of mini-judging contest. All you need to do is finish up and submit a photo here! There will be some cute prizes for the winners! So, this may give you an incentive to get finished :D
