Some Dear Jane sewing
I thought that I might spend lots of time sewing last week while on holidays but in the end I made the most of the snow and the beautiful weather and enjoyed some skiing and relaxing. Getting there and back took quite some time so the car journey was a good opportunity to work on my Dear Jane.
The assembling of rows A & B is now half completed. Not the most exciting but I don't want to leave it all to the end.
G11 decisions, decisions (13 pieces + sashing)
I worked on this block in the last car journey at Christmas but lost one of the diamond to applique. The block is now finished and sashed, I realised one of the square fabric was not in the same direction but eventually decided to keep it as it was.
E3 Paddle Wheels (20 pieces + sashing)
One block entirely completed during the return journey
RS9 Danish Delight (23 pieces)
I started this triangle in May... 2010 (!). Why did it take so long to finish it when most of it was assembled but 2 of the long triangles on the side, I am not sure. Anyway, this one is finished too!
With those additional 2 blocks and 1 triangle, I now have my Dear Jane counter at 138,8,0,2893 Still lots to complete but slowly, very slowly I am moving in the right direction.
Nice job. One of these days I hope I'll work on the Dear Jane quilt.
