My Dear Jane is ready for quilting.........
but I am not. I still have to hand quilt my Dresden and there are some other UFOs :-(
A major project kept me almost a year off the sewing machine and it is so great to be back.
I started the DJ in Dezember 2011 and it was quite a journey. So far more than 600 hours went into it and it is rolled up on a pole right now and will have to wait.
I was trying to come up with a different border but nothing else but the scallopes seamed right. Thats when I decided to frame it with the solid aubergine fabric. First I used printed fabric for the plain triangles and felt that they took too much away from the pieced triangles. I like the calming effect of the solid fabrics.
I did not dare to spray baste it and hand basting was done the Sharon Shamber way.
Hope you like it too.
