Groovy Pieces, I haven't looked at Dear Jane in the Tropics BOM but I have been working on the Dear Jane thread that is on this board started Jan 2012. I think it may have been the second DJ thread started here on QB. The schedule put out by the lady who started the thread I've been on had us scheduled to finish last month or this month - can't remember. Many of us did not keep to the schedule but made a lot of progress and still hope to finish. If the DJ in Tropics block are the same as the original DJ, it is quite addicting. I hope to get back to mine soon and finish it up. It has been a long, but fun, quilt to work on.
