    After I get the book and figure out which blocks I want to do, I will sign up for this swap.

    Also, Linda thanks for the help!!


    Your very welcome!

    I'm trying to decide if I'm going to commit to a third set...

    Depending on how this swap goes I may run "seasonal" ones... be a fun way to work on the Dear Jane :)

    Thank you for letting me join in on the fun. I'd love more dear Jane swaps! One of my ultimate goals is to have a DJ quilt made of swap blocks right next to the one I worked on.

    Quick question though - in any given set of 12 blocks do we have to use the same fabrics or can we vary them? I'm planning on starting mine tomorrow

    Varying the fabrics is fine. I know mine will be scrappy :)

    Meredith, thank you so much for your kind post. I've been posting them on my blog which is more work than I'd expected. With 20 blocks to go, I'm doing a block a day (or at least thats the plan) to finish on my birthday. I'll take a bit of time off and then I'll be ready to start my triangles. I think this swap could be an excellent diversion. =)

    Wil, I made a table runner last year from the Christmas Jane blocks. It really turned out great. I used 2 sets for that one (we made 18 per set last year) I was soo tired of blocks at that point that I only did 1 set of the blue ones..so I'm not sure whether I need more or not. If I use some blanks mixed in, well..maybe not...I'm still thinking
