    I started the first one about 6 years ago I guess and finished quilting it and gave it to my oldest daughter a little over a year ago. This second one I started a little more than 2 1/2 years ago and now it will be put aside to hand quilt when the quilt on have on my frame comes off. (I have hand pieced both of these quilts and hand quilting is what I do.) this second quilt will go to my younger daughter.

    SPECTACULAR!!!!!! :shock: :shock: I have been trying to get up the courage to make a Dear Jane, but I guess I'm just too chicken-hearted. :roll: It is certainly on my "Bucket List" so maybe someday............ :wink:

    That's quite an accomplishment. A lot of us have little hope of ever getting one Dear Jane finished. You did a great job.
