OK - so I am reviewing my DJ chart that comes with the software where I have inserted all of my Jane blocks and realized I was missing two block pictures, which means I never posted them here either....
Here is L13 ... I made this block the same method I used to sew B3 - I thought I had written explicit instructions for that block but apparently had not. If you can follow me, go ahead and use my method but I am a mathematician and use some obscure ways to save fabric [because I'm also obsessively thrifty with fabric....waste not]
1. I cut two 3 1/4" squares of each fabric - background and print - and made a four patch.
2. I cut the center circle adding a 1/4" seam all the way around the finished size, being very careful about making sure the point where the four squares met was exactly in the center.
3. I pinched the seams of the remaining 4-patch with the circle cut out of it & took an additional seam of roughly 1/4" so that the center circle could be turned a quarter turn and appliqued on top of it.
4. I trimmed the finished circle on a square into a circle 1/4" wider all the way around the finished circle [slightly less than 5" diameter] and lastly
5. Appliqued the entire piece onto a 5 1/4" background square, which I then trimmed down to 5" after applique

and Here's M3 - yes that one was a little bit of a bear Anael [get to sleep tonight????] I basically cut all pieces and sewed that one together by hand

man do they ever look off! I think I need to press them because those diamonds are not that uneven!

Two beautiful blocks. Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to starting back on Jane on Thursday. Will be starting on the new schedule. Had Row A and Row B completed. Also part of Row C.

Gus, your method of L13 makes sense to me. I still have to do this one so I will try it. Thanks

I have been 'lurking' Dear Jane site; ordered my book with CD and looking at book and CD again. Attempted to print out a list of blocks by name, by number and by difficulty. First the HP8600 printed them out from my Dell inspire PC fine on the first list by name....but double printed pages 2 and 3 making it unreadable. I restarted my PC and started up again...by number and by difficulty is still printing double. Guess I will need to check with an EQ7 tech tomorrow unless by chance, one of you might have a solution. Thank you.

I have ordered two kits, BOMs, from Quilting on the Square, one DJ in batiks, one regular, beginning mid-January. It will be a challenge, I know and I know I may want additional help, if its possible from you all.
