    Jacqueline De Jonge Patterns - Any one done one of these?

    I have Catch Me if You Can Pattern - been collecting fabrics for a while and think I will start later this year. Any one done one of hers? Any tips for this challenge?

    Thanks so much!

    no help unless you need moral help!! That is quite a project. I always start with something smaller in a new adventure!! You are brave. Good luck, someone else will come along and give you some pointers I'm sure.

    This is the one I've had my eye on.

    Oh I like this one! I have never made one of her patterns before but having been thinking about it and this one does not look as intimidating as some of her other ones. I know the owner of Alderwood Quilts she is a part of my guild and usually see her a couple of times a month I will have to ask her about that pattern and see if she herself has made one and maybe she could be a go to person for me if I venture into trying to make one of these patterns.

    Dolphyngyrl I will be curious to see how people compare Jacqueline's pattern to Judy's. I have made one of Judy's and loved it and have several of her other patterns waiting to be made.

    Her designs are spectacular. I've heard that the English translation is not very good, so my advice would be to be sure you understand the instructions before cutting into your fabric.

    I have the center of the circle of life quilt done. You are right, the patterns are a bit hard to understand so do be sure you have "got it" before you start cutting. They are beautiful though, and I should just get back at mine and finish it. The hard part is done!

    I have no practical experience either, but I've heard the same thing that dunster reported. Questions about her patterns are posted periodically. Use the search function to see more. Here's one:
