I finally got to work on my Dear Jane blocks some more today. I was able to get 3 done :) So I thought I would share some pictures of the blocks I did today. For those not familiar with the Dear Jane quilt, it is a quilt that was made by Jane Stickler during the Civil War Era. I am using Civil War Reproduction fabric for mine. My quilt is named "Recollections With Jane", (everyone names their quilt) and each block is a 5 inch square :) Yes 5 inches.
The block above is called Megan's Mountain Laurel and I think I counted about 45 pieces in this little 5"x 5" gem. I have to admit that when I was working on this one...I was questioning my own sanity...or lack of sanity!!!
This little purple block is called Hani's Crown, and it only has 21 pieces :)
And my final block for today is Jane's Tears. This just has the 4 "teardrops" machine appliqued on the 5 inch square...very easy!
Well my blocks are far from perfect, but I'm having fun and being challenged in doing them, so I'm happy :)
