Dear Jane sounds even scarier to me than The Farmer's Wife Sampler.
There were quite a few of us that worked on the Farmers Wife Sampler AND finished it, took more than a year making two blocks per week THEN we decided to make the Farmers Wife Pony Club quilt 90 blocks that took almost a year.. but what an accomplishment. It really is just one block at a time

And I was quite impressed as I followed along in the background. I already have a 3 year cross stitch project on the go as well as the three 3 year cross stitch projects to follow it. Sure wish there was more me-time. Maybe one day.

You could always do it like your MIIHO ...
... two blocks per month after you get your x-stitch done!
Now at 2 blocks per month, you'd be done in under ten years!!!!!!
I keep saying mine is going to be a 20 year project!

QE--actually I am planning to give this to a special friend, but with the 2 extra blocks I am making a project bag to keep to remind me of you. I don't have a lot of surfaces to put runners in our house, so make them for gifts.
