Elle your block is so pretty with the asian fabs. I'm charging up my camera batteries so I can post my A1.

Someone who'd done several said I absolutely HAD to use muslin or at the very least cream. So glad to see there are others using white, not that I ever make layout decisions by quilt police coercion :lol:

retro, the software shows all types of backgrounds for the Babyjanes so go ahead and try something that makes you feel happy.

I just happen not to be very keen on CW fabrics (geesh I am getting shot down in flames), I like the gold accents on the Asian fabrics.

you don't have to spend $9 a yard for quality fabric. you should check out whittles, i purchased the bulk of my jane fabric from them.

whittles has quality fabric for $3.50-$6.00 a yard.

you need to print A1 as a mirror image for the paper piecing pattern, its one of the options in the software on the print page.

Janstar I have posted its above your post. Can´t be any worse than my wonky triangle LOL

i think the triangle is wonky because it looks like the size is wrong. make sure on the print page that the size reads 5 inches by 8 inches.

the software doesn't have default sizes, since you're able to scale anything up or down, so when you open/print a block and then you go straight to open/print a triangle it will still have the 4.5 inch size on the print page so you have to change it to 5x8.

I want to try this as well. My group of quilting ladies just got a Dear Jane to quilt made of brights! WOW! I love it, but becasue it isn't mine, and she doesn't want to show it until SHE is ready, I can't post a photo. Just wanted to say, you are only restricted by your own wishes!
