    Looks like we are going for a stroll with Jane again, what fun.

    I worked on Jane yesterday, 1 block finished and another just needs the applique (which will be done today), sashings also made as I went along... SO I now have 50 blocks made. I am so far behind everyone I hope I can catch up this year.

    Love it.

    Looks like Jane played nice with mirabelle. I'm hoping to see a photo of the 50 blocks soon.
    QuiltE - 121 blocks
    Anael - 133 blocks - need a group shot. IF, and that is a mighty big little word, I were to do Jane it would not be Halloween fabrics. It would likely be batiks. I would also need someone to tell me about how much yardage I would need as a constant. And for the Canadian dollar to rise a lot so buying the book and CD wouldn't be so painful.

    I am in awe of all of you.

    I am now up to 52 blocks, Row D is finished. I just need to sew the SAS sashings and I can connect it to Rows A,B and C.

    I have started but it will take me a few days to get all those little pieces together. Only then will I start Row E.

    I am doing them as they appear in the book, if I tried any other way I know I would pick all the easy blocks first

    Thanks for all the encouragement..

    Very nice mirabelle. Picking the easiest ones first was exactly how I approached my PC quilt.
    Love that block Anael and the group shot looks great.

    I'm quite happy there is some Dear Jane progress for me to watch.

    Love to see the beautiful work, ladies. It reinforces my reasons for not starting.....I know I would get a good start and then it would suffer a slow death in UFO land. Kudos to all of you who pursue this Holy Grail of quilters.

    Maybe when I retire from farm life and move to town...like that's gonna happen soon........

    Cleaning the mess in my sewing space today. Was going to do it yesterday, but started a project on EQ and spent most of the day with it. Have a good one....

    oksewglad - Amazing how easy it is to get sidetracked by a quilting project.

    OK, there were moments I thought my DJ would end up in UFO land too but with QuiltE and Mirabelle also chasing DJ it motivates me to finish mine. Still didn't decide on the triangles. I made a few but I'm not sure about them. I don't like them very much so maybe I'll do something else.
