    Thank you, Dakotamaid!

    You are welcome Gladys. Your instructions were very clear. The chart worked wonderful. The only thing I did not understand it how to post the chart without it being an attachment. Your chart appears in your post and mine was an attachment for download. I don't understand how to do that but your instruction to complete the chart was very clear. Thank you again.

    I have found that sometimes, don't know why, I can copy and paste a picture or image right into this message box. Like now: This is Gladys chart.

    That chart is beautiful. You are a very talented group here.
    I have taken some rather crooked pictures of my new two blocks, but you will get to see them. I love that I can see that I am getting better with hand appliqué.

    Gladys...beautiful blocks and your chart shows how beautiful your quilt will be when finished. Brooke...nice job on your hand applique. Isnt it rewarding to do something like that which looks so impossible at first?

    Gladys, Love seeing your blocks in the chart. The colors are so brilliant. Wish I was so far along.

    Brooke~~Love your blocks and know what you mean about seeing the improvement with applique. I look at my first blocks and am glad that I have sashing on them already, or I would be tempted to redo them. Keep up the good work. Love seeing new blocks.

As the place in my "design wall" sold out, yet I don't know if putting the blocks in another or if they begin to join them together with the sashing. For this reason, I have only my scheme with all my pictures of blocks and triangles.
    I hope the pictures and thanks for looking like them!
    A hug to everyone!
    Gladys: Your blocks are PERFECT!!! Beautiful!!

    I came across a blog today that has a tutorial for all the Dear Jane blocks. I didn't look at all of them, but it is helpful to see how someone else has done each one. This may not be new to anyone else, but in case anyone is interested, here is the link:
    http://thatquilt.blogspot.com/
    I always find it inspirational to see what others are doing.

    I made it through another week and got 3 blocks done. At this rate, it will only take me another 2 years, if I don't drop out again. Anyway, I got blocks E 11-12 & 13 done. All the material I am using is scraps from quilt tops that I have made in the past. Some come from some charm squares that I got on sale a while back. E11 is a block that I made from some Looney Tunes fabric I got many years back for $1 a yard, and I bought the rest of the bolt. The first picture is of the quilt top that I had just finished from that fabric.

    And this is block E11 from that material
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]470174[/ATTACH]
    The next 2 are E12 & E13 and I used charm squares for them
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]470175[/ATTACH]
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]470176[/ATTACH]
    I will get these blocks attached to the first 4 rows and then I am going to work on the TR triangles. Wish me luck
