I think she may have done this to maintain HER sanity - - -

I'm not at all sure about the rest of us, though

There are pictures in the book of various quilts using the Jane type blocks - some only use some of the blocks, one used only the triangles - it might be worth borrowing the book just to look at the pictures and see that even under the watchful eye of Brenda P that MANY variations were made.

If you are looking for a how-to on the construction of a particular block - not there.

There is some useful general info at the beginning of the book - use a sharp/new rotary blade, accuracy is important, a little bit about hand piecing, etc.
