    Me too Lacelady. Klue adds a lot, especially with this quilt topic.

    Esq, did you say there was a DJ retreat in June? Do you have any details?

    I am hoping that she will be back amongst us soon.
    I'm so glad you have heard from KLue...that's good to hear. Hopefully she'll be back leading us all in no time!

    Do you plan on going? It's clear across the country from me, but sure looks like a very educational event.

    well then this is going to burst your brain.

    these are the jane blocks (and others) done in diamonds instead of squares (like squares are so easy).

    these are beautiful! I have a kit to do the Jane Austen diamond quilt, but have been sidetracked by so many other projects! I might wait for retirement in 30 years or so!
    You could always send it down here for a holiday, I'd promise to take REAL good care of it! LOL ;-)
    Ha ha ha!

    thats a stunning quilt, do you have the kit to make it is warm color reproduction fabrics or is it in blue & white.

    i seen them in both colorways.
    My kit is blue and white, but mostly reproduction fabrics. It is beautiful, but I've had so many other projects that it has been sidetracked a little.

    We all started this journey at the beginning of the year, our goal is to make the same quilt that Jane Stickle made in 1863. 169 blocks.... 52 triangles... and 4 kites. She can't have done it in one year, surely it took longer!

    We're not out to defraud, we're not out to start a war.... we just want to quilt, we just want to sew together, and learn, and laugh, and no doubt sometimes cry.

    Admin doesn't want to shut us down, they just want to protect their site. If someone mentions the dreaded copyright word (I'm too scared to even type it! ;-) it's not an offence punishable by death! The post will be deleted, that's all. No hanging, no whipping, no court date.

    We can still post photos of how a block went together, the tricky parts, how we got around it, etc. And if we step over the line, admin will no doubt let us know, and we'll adjust ourselves, and carry on.

    So lets get back to what we're here for.... being part of the biggest and bestest online group to ever make a Jane Stickle quilt. :-)

    :thumbup: New Zealand, Canada, Netherlands, Japan, Britain, Spain, Australia, Ireland, America. :thumbup:

    How seriously cool is that!
