How long did it take you to complete a "Dear Jane" quilt?
I started Dear Jane or should I say Baby Jane mid last year completing only 18 squares, I've picked it back up again this last weekend after finishing another quilt. My goal is to at least do a lot more than 18 squares this year in between other projects. Just interested to hear how others journeyed through it and at what speed? XX

I haven't made a Dear Jane, but admire others who have. Most seem to say it took them 1.5 years. They haven't said if this was the only project they were working on, or one of many. Could we see some pictures of the blocks you have finished?

I just started mine in Feb. I am in group that meets once a month to talk about which squares to do each month. The first month the squares were based on rotary cutting. The second month they were based on paper piecing. This month it is applique. In the group meeting we talk about the best method to use for each square and alternative ways to do things. I have 26 squares done. I still have 2 that need to be paper pieced and 11 that need applique. After the first month they want you to do 1 triangle each Friday. I have not started those yet. I am supposed to finish all the squares in 13 months.
