I saw the original after I saw mine. We also drove to Shaftsbury and visited Jane's grave. Did you all know that people leave small pieces of fabric on her headstone?? I read online a the DJ website how people from all over the world who were working on the quilt donated money to have her headstone replaced since it was falling apart. I would have LOVED to have contibutued but I didn't even know the quilt or she existed! Here is a picture of her headstone for those who have not seen it. [ATTACH=CONFIG]347178[/ATTACH]

You can see on the bottom right some scraps of fabric and two little rocks on top. I have visited her grave about three times and each time there has been some fabric on it. The Stickle name is on the very top of the stone at the tip of the picture. Bennington is only about a 45 minute ride from my house.

Kudos to you. I know there's a nickname for anybody that does a Dear Jane quilt---just can't remember what it is. Anyhow, you've earned it. Thanks for sharing your version of Jane.
