But finally I can call it DONE and move on to something smaller, easier, and a lot more fun. So why am I even glancing at the Dear Jane book??!

Congrats! You're a better quilter than I am...

You're looking at Dear Jane because you're so good at doing the impossible! And so disciplined! Excellent job, you will cherish this one forever. Give yourself a break though and do some easy stuff before you start Dear Jane. I recently saw Dear Jane in Chocolate and pinks, it was so beautiful!

Stupid your not! Beautiful work and if you are like most, you have gained more wisdom as you worked on your beautiful quilt. Looks to me that maybe you have given stupid a whole different meaning! Thankyou for sharing with us.Jan
