don't argue with it to hard, they tend to win if we get into it with them!

I don't think so, but best to check with Klue. I think as long as the six weeks worth of blocks are posted at the *end* of the six week period then you're still in the draw. :-)

And there's no punishment if you don't make a deadline, just a small penalty of a chocolate fish, payable to me. ;-)

What the??? Yeah, I will chime in and say it quite frequently LOL.

Breaking News...I am reporting the first case of Jane-related injuries. Yes, INJURIES.

I'm having one of those "off" days & didn't plan to quilt because we all know how that usually goes. I rushed through cooking dinner to make time to piece & burned the inside of my thumb. NO problem...cold water & I'm off to quilt... Picking up my tiny scissors to get some strings out of the way before pressing, I opened them, hit the burn & stabbed my first finger! They say Jane is blood, sweat, and tears. I'm marking blood off my to list, Jane. So far, I think I'm on the right track LOL.

LOL Oh no!! I shouldn't laugh, I do sympathise, some days it's just not meant to happen.

I'm not a happy camper, have had guests all day, now they're staying for dinner, all I want to do is go and sew!!

LOL, i'm done some crazy mistakes myself when paper piecing and thats always been my cue to go to bed or do something else.

i think the triangle look better with the dark on the outside instead of the light.

I am really behind on reading the post wow so many pages not sure I will ever get them all read. I do have a book on PP and working on learnimg that so when I can start on DJ maybe it won't take to long to catch up. Learning to PP from book is not so easy but I will get it. This is the best swap because it is only me and not someone else waiting on my blocks!

you aren't really far behind - we're just starting week 2.

i'm sure if you contact EQ they will help you with anything you need.

welcome to the group.

by far the hardest thing to decide is fabric.

i was very set on which fabrics i wanted to use but now seeing all the fabric choices everyone else has made - i have about 20 jane quilts i want to make.

the list just keeps getting longer and longer :oops:

i hear you completey, my DH doesn't like quilting at all.

anything i make for him is strictly SITD and only the minimum amount required so the batting stays the way it should.

he also doesn't understand why i cut up beautiful fabric and then just sew it all back together.
