I have just got home from a little Dear Jane group that we have about once a month. We call ourselves Natterjanes. There is no teaching as such, but we all help one another and spur ourselves on. I have been doing my Christmas Baby Jane since 2007, and I have learnt so many techniques !!
www.thatquilt.blogspot.com is a brilliant site and will help enourmously. You can see my design wall by clicking on the link below. I have done 100 blocks and my VERY slow journey is progressing !!
There are so many ladies on here who will encourage you on your journey !!

Can you imagine the journery she was on when she made the quilt? It would be interesting if letters were found about it.
