What a great idea!! This fabric was beautiful - I like the table runner and the friendship tree so far
"pssssssst Tell her that you will even let her do them in Halloween fabrics and you might get her attention!" Ah QuiltE, I knew you had a mean streak. Telling everyone my kryptonite. Still no. I don't have the book. :) |

Thank you. The friendship tree is mine and is hanging in my dining room right now.

Hear's my DJ Blue Block Flock ........... Jane Sings the Blues!
Thirteen born in December ....... [ATTACH=CONFIG]461444[/ATTACH] Fourteen in January ....... [ATTACH=CONFIG]461445[/ATTACH] All 27 together ....... [ATTACH=CONFIG]461446[/ATTACH] Now for the ten appliques done so far, by this neophyte of applique!! Placed in order of completion, left to right, row by row .... [ATTACH=CONFIG]461447[/ATTACH] |
I should add ... so far, I have not repeated any of the blues.
The WOW is all the same fabric. |
Those are looking great QuiltE.

Absolutely amazing. So many favourites but I think I like Water Lily best. It practically glows.
Now that I see the appliques in order, I think I recognize one of the fabrics. :) So, in order to not repeat a blue, how many more do you need? I see there are over 200 blocks. :shock: And are you really doing each block 4 1/2"? :eek: |
Thanks JeanieG ... have a great get-away this week! :)
Good Eye W4Me ... and thanks to you too! Yes, final applique, World Series is THE one! :) 169 blocks + 52 triangles + 4 kites = 225 Only time will tell if I do the whole thing ... or stop at a Baby Jane! Yes, each of those little ones, finish at 4-1/2"!!! Here's a link to the original quilt from 1863, so you can get a look at what we are emulating. http://www.dearjane.com/fullsize.htm Then check out Google Images and see some of the recently made ones, and variations from the original pattern. |
Dear QuiltE
what an eye candy early in the morning!! I love your blocks and cant wait to see the progress. It gives me the boost to finish my DJ (eventually....) |
Wow QuiltE, great accomplishment!!! Don't work too hard or you'll finish before I'm finished :D :D :D
