Weird, I don't get updates on this thread.
You can't go wrong with Sylvia, it's what you want it to be, like any other quilt. There are so many different ways to do Sylvia (or Jane for that matter)......it's all up to you.
My Jane is traditional, like the original Jane and also the Trip around the World colours.
Teen, I hear you.........I always say I don't do SITD, I do A(almost)SITD
I really don't like it! Even with a walking foot the fabric is shifting, no matter what I do, how many pins I use or the direction I'm sewing. So.........instead of ASITD I like an all over FMQ. But you're right, Sylvia is huge and heavy once sandwiched.
DonnaPea, more great looking blocks!!! Keep them coming!
