    Is the Dear Jane software stand alone? Or do I need Electric Quilt too?

    TIA

    I don't have the software, but I think I've read in other threads that it can be used alone. Hopefully if I'm wrong someone else will chime in to correct me! :)

    Good work. Good luck. How many years do you plan to work on this?

    Thank you all, very much! You're so very encouraging. :D

    QM-- Oh, I think it's going to be a while. Though I'm the sort of person who could easily allow myself to get sucked right in and immerse myself in making these fun little blocks 24/7 (my grandmother compared making them to eating salted peanuts :) ), I've got too much else going on to let myself. If I do a block/triangle a week, I think that puts me on what?, a 4 year and 4 month plan... plus handquilting... yikes! It'll be a while, I guess! lol :shock: ...Well, I'm two blocks closer to my goal, anyway! ;)

    (I don't think I mentioned- these blocks took me 4 1/2 and 4 hours to make. I'm sure they could take less time for someone using a different method but this is how I know to do it. These are also some of the advanced blocks- I'm sure when I get through the advanced blocks and start working on the intermediate and beginner level blocks, they'll take less time- maybe I'll be able to get a little ahead of schedule then!)

    Hi - WOW well done, especially G6 - not an easy block !! I love doing my DJ and have chosen Christmas Fabric - See my link below if you'd care to see my design wall !

    This is also a good tutorial website Anina has done a tut on every block and it is really helpful !!!
