    Ok I can't start for a few more days but your pics are so pretty it's made me excited all over again. I'd love to see a pic of someone's who has done the embroidery. Has anyone? Please show us!!!

    Dori, your blocks are beautiful! After sewing 2 Dear Jane blocks I found out I did them wrong but I didn't correct them. It's my quilt and my blocks and as long as I like them it's ok with me. With one of the JT2 blocks (#1) I didn't use the templates but used my DJ software so the block is different. We're creative

    When you're making the schoolhouse block use the freezer paper or starch the fabric! I didn't and had a hard time matching the points, specially the rooftop and the chimney. Had to rip three times before it was right!
