    yes everyone chooses their own colors because we're not swapping anything - just working together virtually.

    i think some of the blocks are difficult and i'm hoping that we'll come up with a clever way to make some of them easier.

    i'm all about the easy over the exact replica.

    Or just 72 sets?

    Or doesn't it really matter?

    Like the way you are listing the "taken" ones - it's easy to follow
    the size that it grows to - is the size, makes no difference.

    i never thought we'd get more than 18 people.

    the only thing i limit is multiples, it duplicates - no triplicates on blocks.

    I am redrafting mine so if anyone wants my version just ask. I also can see how I would do some of the harder ones. So I would be glad to help if I can.There are some I think only paper piecing would work but I don't do paper piecing so some of them I would use my cut down methods on them

    perfect. don't worry about the paper piecing because my first desire is to paper piece so i'll have that covered.

    I debated on several of the blocks in row L because I could see how I would do them but I decided to just pick one at the time when I was looking at them.

    Couldn't you substitute some duplicates of the easier ones for the ones you can't make? It might not be an exact replica but you could still have fun with it. I don't know as I am not doing the one in Jan. Ask Klue if this is alright if you want to join in the fun!

    of course its ok, everyone is Jan is going to make their idea of a Jane Quilt. there is no right or wrong way.

    i'm sure none of us will have the exact same Jane Quilt.
