Has anyone done a "dear Jane" quilt? I have seen some quilts and it looks like a lot of work, I do love applique but notoriously I start quilts and never finish them, so I am hesitant to spend $$ for the pattern book (to date I have 38 UFOs!! LOL)

We had a BOM here on the board last year, and several have been finished, with more still working on them.

I made one block for my grandmother's Dear Jane wall-hanging. It came out lovely and looks like a lot of fun to make.
It strikes me as the sort of thing that you could make up a bunch of little kits to take along- just pick away at it by doing a block at a time, when you feel like it, if you think you'd get bogged down trying to do it all "in one sitting".
