Great idea :thumbup: lets run with that.

I am still waiting on my fabric from fabricdepot.com - I ordered the buttercup yellow kona cotton and will be using that for my background. I plan on making the quilt very vibrant and colorful and am going to call it "Tattooed Jane" Hopefully it will all come together in the end.

I am green with envy that you all have started so great! Every block I've seen looks really good.
Klue I am naming my Jane "Jane in Repro Scrappy". If this sounds to weird let me know and I will change it. I am just not good with naming something.
I started last night and naturally got the pp wrong. Back to it right now.

No.... I'm not doing a normal sashing, mine will be the Storm at Sea setting, which means squares in squares and a LOT more piecing. I don't want to get to the end and have to do all the sashing in one hit, so I'm planning on adding mine as I go to minimise the stress and work.

I had no idea what you were talking about so googled it. OMG Will you be using the triangles with this setting. I just saw one at quiltville but it didn't have the triangles. You must be or you wouldn't have made one, Dah! Answer my own question. Will you set the triangles in the traditional way after you have all the sashings done?

This is the one that inspired me....

I am doing the triangles, the software has calculated the sizes they need to be so it's not so hard.

I'm working on a section of four blocks, have one left to do, that sit next to each other so I can put the sashing in and just see how it looks for peace of mind. I'll post a photo when it's done (should be this afternoon with a bit of luck).
