    if you can afford the price of the DJ Block Clubs then the only problems i see are

    1) its a 2 year project and we'll be done in 16 months tops

    2) we might not have the same schedule as the club


    so, you could certainly be in the group and work on different blocks then the group each month but we'll be done a full 8 months before you would be.

    Okay, you can count me in for the January one. I have been looking at my stash and have loads of colours that will suit.

    Have just to get a good deal on the software.

    After doing my M5s I am ready for a DJ! I worried I couldn't do anything this small, but I found my blocks are more accurate- can you imagine that?

    Anyway- I'm going to do civil war repros. Going to start looking for the software. And- bonus- lqs has a paper piecing class in Nov. My prayers are answered. Thought I was going to have to pack everything up and go to Klue's house to do the more difficult ones. :)

    Bring it on.....

    I buy 1/8 yards of fabric for my Dear Jane and give half of each to my daughter (who is also making a Dear Jane). So far, B-1 is the only block that I needed a wider piece for. I'm using unbleached muslin for the background.
