Wow. Felt like I was back in kindergarten! Thanks for sharing!
|
How cute, where did you get the pictures was it a kit?
|
What a great quilt with lots of memories for those of us who grew up with Dick & Jane. I really like your border design, too!
|
I used the same Dick and Jane fabric in a quilt for my grandson when he was born almost ten years ago. When I took it to the quilt shop that I purchased the fabric from to show them the finished product I was informed that they had received notification that they were to try to get all the fabric back that they had sold that it was not copyrighted and should never have been distributed. We both said yeah right like that is going to ever happen.
|
Love it!
|
Love it, I have seen the fabric and thought what a neat quilt it would make, great job!
|
I learned how to read with Dick and Jane ( getting old I am)
so I just love this |
Very cute and fun! :D :D
|
I looked at your quilt and got flashbacks to when I was in first grade. I love it!
|
Very cute quilt!!

Lovely - I have similar material and found a book to gift with the quilt when I get it done.

What a darling quilt! I had the teacher's big book (remember those?) for many years, then we had "a water catastrophe" in our house and it got wet. That really hurt. I had taken such good care of it for such a long time. (I had rescued it from the "trash" that was being cleared from a book room at school.) That book was published the year of my birth. Anyhoo! I have several pieces of the Dick and Jane series and can't decide what to do with it. Actually I can't make up my mind to cut into it. Ouch!
|
Yikes! Check eBay for the value of the big book. I don't see any recent sales, but your head will swim at the prices.

I love it. I have some Dick and Jane fabric SOMEWHERE!!!! LOL You have inspired me to look for it.
|
Nice job! How many of us learned reading on Dick and Jane and "see Spot run". What memories! Great job!
|
I love it!
|
I love Sally, Dick and Jane remember them from my reader. I got a piece of the fabric then could not think what to do with it. You have inspired me - now where did I put the fabric. . .
Nicely done |
That's really cute :P
|
A lot of memories in this quilt, for me at least. I love it.
|
I like it. I learned to read with Dick and Jane.
|
Great quilt. Can't forget Dick and Jane. Brings a smile to one's face.
|
That is pretty. I have wondered what could be done with that
fabric. |
I learned to read with Dick, Jane & Sally books. Brings back the old memories just looking at it :) :). Great quilt-I LOVE IT!!!
|
I love it. I have the squares too. Now I have a good idea what to do with them. You did a great job..
|
om goodness I remember learning to read and seeing each one of those pic. GREAT QUILT. The world of dick and Jane was so much simpler wasn't it.

Oh Dick, Jane, and Sally. Thanks for the memories and sharing your beautiful quilt.
|
I think the quilt is adorable!
My name is Sally, my husband is Dick. No one in the family is named Jane, but... We received refrigerator magnets of Dick and Sally from dear friends when we married 13 years ago. It is a second marriage for both of us, so we really didn't need much, but enjoyed the good memories the magnets brought! |
So cute! I recognized the people (Sally, Dick, and Jane) from struggling to learn to read years (and years and years!) ago. Really nice job!
|
I am so happy to see how you planned out this quilt. I have the panel with plans to make it up as a wallhanging for my teacher son's kindergarten/ library. Now I must get busy! I just finished one of Dr. Seus for his class coming up in March.
