if you have Electric Quilt, you can get the Dear Jane CD and that is all you need.

I'm using the Dear Jane CD and I don't have Electric Quilt. It's a stand-alone program.

I have been itching to do a Dear Jane, but would like an accountablity group...preferably in person. I do well with dates and time lines. Anyone in the St. Louis area interested? It would probably be a two year (at least) committment. I am hoping to go to Vermont this Fall and see THE Dear Jane Quilt.

Maybe you could do a DJ block, finish a UFO, do a DJ block, finish a UFO!!!!! I bribe myself all of the time.

The Stickle quilt is displayed every September and October in the Rotating Textile Study Area.

Oh boy, I am not the only one with lots of UFO's. I get bored with one thing or I see something new and go that way. Fabric draws me to something new.

I have just got home from a little Dear Jane group that we have about once a month. We call ourselves Natterjanes. There is no teaching as such, but we all help one another and spur ourselves on. I have been doing my Christmas Baby Jane since 2007, and I have learnt so many techniques !!
www.thatquilt.blogspot.com is a brilliant site and will help enourmously. You can see my design wall by clicking on the link below. I have done 100 blocks and my VERY slow journey is progressing !!
There are so many ladies on here who will encourage you on your journey !!

All I can find is the CD that goes with EQ7. Could you tell me where you found the stand alone program for Dear Jane? Thank you so much.
