    I am not sure what will happen to the one or ones that I am making, I don't have a plan for them, Make them up and see if I have some place for them or if they will be sent to a new home. I definitely want them used.

    I think I'll hang mine on a large wall in my house. Otherwise it would go on my bed, but then only hubby and I would see it and I really want others to see and appreciate it as well.

    As a read all of these posts I can't help but get the fuzzies thinking how something like this has brought so many quilters from literally all over the world to work towards a common goal, "A Dear Jane we can call our own" isn't is great. Thank you Klue because you're the one who spear-headed this awesome project. I can say I know someone in New Zealand, The Netherlands, Canada, The UK, even California and New York :-D and one virtually in my backyard I know there are other placed (outside the US that I don't remember) these are just a few of the places I remember. :thumbup:to us all

    it really is amazing how one quilt design can span all countries and all quilting styles.

    the jane quilt is loved by all, from traditional to contemporary quilters from the top of the world (in this case Canada) to the bottom (hi blue in New Zealand).

    its a true testament to the classic and timeless creative abilities of jane stickle.

    i'm thrilled to death that we'll all be sharing this experience together and really look forward to seeing the 40+ jane quilts at the end of this cyber party.

    Me too to everything you just said Kelly. I feel very special to have my mini Christmas Jane. I look at it everyday and am amazed by it. Mine will be hung and admired by all of us. My family is looking foreward to my finishing it next year or so. My DH is ready to help keep me on schedule. I'm glad!

    I had wanted to make up two quilts until I realized we were doing more than 1 block a week. :oops: (Teach me to read too fast & get too excited!) However, after seeing your Christmas quilt I'm thinking I could double up on the blocks I really like and make a Christmas table runner, or something similar. You have inspired me with your beautiful quilt!

    I agree with you Okie. I think this will be a very special project, and when I'm old and grey and I see my Dear jane, that I have than finished for years and years agoo, you can see an old lady grinn...becuase she had just so much fun makeing her DJ with people all over the world! Isn't it amazing?
