Totally awesome!! I have to keep many projects going at once because I get bored easily. I worked on my Jacobean applique about 7 years with a lot of projects in between including Dear Jane. I didn't get past 6 blocks before starting something else. I am in envy of anyone who can start and finish a project before starting something new!

Fabulous, breathtaking, beautiful and so many more adjectives to explain the beauty and hard work that has gone into this quilt!! Congratulations for sticking to it and I'd say you have a masterpiece!!!
|
OMG I am doing this quilt right now for dd33. She is getting married in October. I double the size of the blocks. It is a very challenging quilt. Your looks great!!! I hope mine looks half as good.

I've regretted that decision regularly, since I am a one-at-a-time quilter. That's why it earned its name, as many times in the last year I've said I would love to work on (whatever new project attracted me) except that "I have to finish that Stupid Sylvia quilt". But finally I can call it DONE and move on to something smaller, easier, and a lot more fun. So why am I even glancing at the Dear Jane book??! |
Anna...
I've read all her books and love them... I have the pattern and have often thought about tackling it, but remember in the book it took several quilter to do it. I still have the book but not a quilt... You've done a great and beautiful job. Love it. |
Not me! My very own fabric diet is not going so well. But then, neither is my other diet.

Woweeeeeee! That is AMAZING!

I LOVE it.

Congratulations on your wonderful work of art. Love everything about it. You could enter it in the Festival of Quilts in Galway in June 2012.
|
Beautiful quilt. I am feeling the same feelings about my Dear Jane. I love it, but would like to move on to other exciting things.
|
What a lot of work. You must be very patient! :-D
|
Beautiful, Love it.
|
Oh my gosh, your quilt is just awesome. Well worth the work. I am not brave enough to try something so intense.
|
Now aren't you proud of yourself for sticking with it until you finished it? I wish I could do that!
|
You did a wonderful job on it! I think it is a very SMART SYLVIA quilt. I love Chiaverini's books so I can really understand why you wanted to make this quilt. Love it!

I am in awe. I used to be a one at a time quilter and wish I didn't get so distracted and take on several at a time now. That is a beauty, you should pat yourself on the back for that one.

What a beautiful quilt. I have read all the the Elm Creek novels, in fact it was the Round Robin Quilt book, that inspired me to finally stop saying I wanted to learn to quilt and to actually take a class. Someday I would like to try making the quilt.
|
Wow! That did take some work. I admire your endurance, and it's beautiful.
|
It is beautiful. Job well done.

Lovely! And you are certainly talented enough that Dear Jane will be a breeze for you!
