Happy Birhday. Great fabrics. Dear Jane is sure a project. Good luck.

I love your fabric... I can't wait to see what your going to make. HAPPY BIRTHDAY... Mine is the 26th.....

Thanks for the birthday wishes it's this Saturday. That is when I'll get the book and I think I'll look it over first then decide on the white fabric, but Im leaning towards the muslin WHY I DON"T KNOW. By the time I get this done i'll be 80 hahahahahahha I just figured take my time and do easier ones first and then grow with the project. So if it takes me 38 years so be it. hehehehehehehe

Thanks again for all the birthday wishes. You are all great.

Happy brithday! Isn't it crazy how some companies get their stuff right out to you and others you wait and wait?

Bevanger, are you a virgo too? I seem to recall the change is around the 23rd. I'm Sept. 1st.

Well, happy birthday to everyone who's coming up soon.

Those scare me but we'll see. I was thinking even if I did a block a day that would work. NOT since I'm not home long enough most days. hahahaa I just tried Henry's thing of 30 mins a day that hasn't worked either. Oh well, at least I thought about it.

I can tell you that the Jane Stickle is doable! You will not be 101 years of age when it gets done. I am not 101 yet(well, OK, knocking on the door maybe! :mrgreen: ha ha)Your fabric will be lovely in the Jane!

(Not that advice was asked but gonna suggest anyway! :) )

What I did was to lay out 13 fabrics(I believe there are 13 blocks across) in a color arrangement that pleased me, next to each other.

I made those 13 blocks, with out thinking of any other rows, blocks, or thinking: "SCREAM, I have 250 million more to do"!)

Then I layed those out in the line as they would be in the quilt & chose 13 more fabrics that pleased me in the arrangement of Row B & the Row A made above.

I did the entire quilt this way. I purchased fabric as I went & I used muslin. The beautiful CW Repos were not that readily available as what we have now.

If you concentrate on ONE ROW at a time , rather than the whole quilt, it does not overpower you! After the first row, you kinda learn how to put together the small blocks .

That is my daily advice & it is worth 21 cents. ha ha

I KNOW you can do it!!!!! :thumbup:

Well, Reily THANK YOU that sounds good to me so your advice with interest these days blah, blah, blah is now worth $1.25 okay all joking aside on that one. Thank you and how is it to work with muslin plus do I need to buy all at once or can I just go as I go. If that makes any sense. I know with yarn that it's under dye lots I guess that is what I'm worried about.

Love your farics Renee!!!! Happy Birthday!!!

Thanks Melissa
