I pieced the little cross in the middle instead of applique. Itty bitty triangles!

I redrafted this block, I wasn't really happy with the one in Brenda's book. To me it just didn't represent what Jane did.

I pieced this instead of applique. My curves must not have been exactly right, because the block was just a tad bit puffy in the middle. But it pressed out fine, so I'm not going to redo it.

Of course, on Jane's quilt, this is a piece of cheater cloth. Here it is with a bluebonnet center, a bow to my state (Texas) flower. On to Row C!

I am intriqued to see your posts as you go along. I like the first block. That is the way I feel when I try to quilt, all out of sync; but it's so interesting. I'll be eagerly waiting to see your additions and the ultimate completed top. Good luck!

OMG, I have been going through the pages and looking at all your blocks, which look great. Then having never heard or seen a "Dear Jane" viewed the website: http://thatquilt.blogspot.com/2009/01/10.html given on page 3 given by gailinva. I now see what you have gotten yourself into. This is quite an undertaking; I wish you health, luck, and patience!

This block was difficult to get straight. Of course, I'm hand piecing, using paper, pencil, scissors, needle and thread, just as Jane would have. It is a fun experiment.

This was an enjoyable block, but difficult to hand piece all those itty bitty pieces and get them straight. I finally accepted the block the way it is, instead of strive for perfection.
