    Dear Jane - "E" is for Eek! E4 is tough!

    And onward we go. The first 4 rows are done and the top row of triangles. I find it interesting how Jane did one block with a "design" like melon seeds or circles (as in B 2 & 3) and repeated it a little differently in the next block! Enjoy your day and thanks for looking!

    Never regret growing older, its a privilege denied to many.
    Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.

    I noticed that, too. I wondered if she made several with a 'theme' - and then went on to another theme.

    She used 'square in a square' (or 'diamond in a square') a lot!

    I wonder what the original maker would think about all the buzz her quilt is making today.Who knows if one of our quilts ends up surviving well into the future. I figure the only one of mine that survives will be the double knit, ugly utility quilt I made more than 25years ago. Thank goodness I did not put a label on that one! Your Dear Jane blocks are so precise and pretty. I particularly like the gold one with the tiny triangles on both sides of the diamond.

    I do, too! (Like E4) I've always loved working with my hands but not doing one thing over and over so I really love having all these challenging blocks to do! Usually one per day! Its MY vitamin! Freezer paper piecing the Thimbleberries way allows the accuracy! Thanks all of you for sharing the journey!
