its very hard to find large scale pics of the original jane - the official dear jane site seems to have the best pics.
the book doesn't really have better pics of the quilt block either - the book offers a scale line drawing of the block which you could use to make templates or to make a paper piece pattern.

might have had in mind.
i think its quite common that some blocks get redrafted by most people who do a jane.
i'm sure jane stickle made some design decisions based on what she had on hand and if she had access to everything that we do today this quilt would have been done differently.

i think you'll find that the easy blocks go together very quickly. you'd be able to finish all 18 blocks in a few hours.

I haven't ever done a swap before so this is a first for me! I have watched some of the other swaps so decided it looked like fun and this is one that is right up my alley. I know I can do this one easily.
Someone asked me awhile back if I had ever done one of these and I hadn't even seen one before.
