Because if your like me, you love working with small pieces and you love a challenge! The feeling of accomplishment when a piece like this is done is grand indeed.

BTW- my first introduction to "Dear Jane" was a quilt I saw at the International show in Chicago a few years ago and like you, she had a love/hate relationship with the quilt and named it "No Pain, No Jane".

Your Stupid Sylvia quilt is awesome!! Beautiful work, lovely fabric choices.

Keep going. I see Jane, Omigosh, and Farmers Wife in your future!!

Hmmm ... here's a new name. "Stamina for Sylvia"

Should be stupendous Sylvia. So beautiful.

That is one beautiful sampler quilt!! I think you might need to consider a namechange when you have a little more distance from the project- it's fabulous!

You are to be commended!! This is truly a work of art, so many designs included. Wonderful job and thanks for sharing.

Wow! Is all I can say! Beautiful, awesome!

To do something so tedious is truely a labor of love. Beautiful job.

Thanks so much for sharing your journey with us. I know how you feel. I did that on a Totally Tubular quilt and as I was endlessly working on it, it somehow got renamed 'The quilt from H - - -". I even included the nickname on the label when I was finished but amazingly it looked good when done. Yours is spectacular though and now you know you can do anything! :-)

It's gorgeous!

Step away from the Dear Jane book. lol

Awesome! I completely understand why you're calling it Stupid Sylvia. Working on 6" blocks right now & I can't even say what I'm calling it in my head. You're quilt is gorgeous :)
