Dear Jane Quilt - Block A5 - Cathie's Campfire
Dear Jane Quilt - Block A5 - Cathie's Campfire |
Today I have had a bit of an audit for the Dear Jane quilt. AS a result I have all the papers and fabric cut for the remaining sashing, cornerstones and border triangles, so in theory there is nothing to stop me ... besides the En Provence Mystery Quilt.

Dear Jane Quilt - Corner Block TRC Longwood
Dear Jane Quilt - Corner Block TRC Longwood |
Construction of the whole quilt is quietly going on in the background. I keep running out of sashing and now it is less portable, I get less stitching time. If there was some good Christmas telly that would really help ..

Dear Jane Quilt - Corner Block BLC Goshen
Dear Jane Quilt - Corner Block BLC Goshen |
Although I am in the middle of the Bonnie Hunter 2016 En Provence Mystery Quilt, I am starting to look for some new online projects starting in the New Year. I have resisted the Rainbow Scrappy Challenge for years, but feel I am starting to weaken with all the lovely projects that are being shared at this time of year. Do you know of any that are starting in the beginning of 2017? I think a monthly 'thing' would work with my schedule. I am all ears.

Dear Jane Quilt - Block B4 Chris's Soccer Field
Dear Jane Quilt - Block B4 Chris's Soccer Field |
As you know I have completed all the blocks and I am slowly putting the whole thing together. This is the slow part about English Paper Piecing. This is the part when it becomes less portable, so I have less opportunities to stitch. This is the time when I start thinking I need a NEW project ... any suggestions?

Dear Jane Quilt - Block I7 Mac and Muff
Dear Jane Quilt - Block I7 Mac and Muff |
A quick look around to find a reference to Mac and Muff and I see that it was series of 'Early Reader' books. Did anyone learn to read with these? In my day it was 'Dick and Dora'.
