My Priceless Quilt Group is making Dear Jane. We are finally at a spot where three of us (Theresa, Faye, and I) are very close together. I just finished E2 and they are working on E8 this week. I have six to catch up. From this point we are committing to one block per week.
I am also excited to say that Linda and Lorna plan to start on E8 and continue forward with us.
I finished 3 more Dear Jane blocks.
D-13 Field of Dreams took 10 min and has 5 pieces. This is definitely the easiest Dear Jane block there is. I paper-pieced it.
E-1 Aunt Exie's Phlox took 1 hour & 45 min. and has only 5 pieces. It is needle-turn applique and "I love it"! I made it at the Priceless quilters gathering. I prepped it, and while I was prepping E-2, my good friend Linda stitched it down for me.
E-2 Merry May took 1 hr and 20 min. & has 11 pieces in it. It is needle-turn applique in the center and rotary pieced on the borders.
Dear Jane Totals:
1182 pieces
47 hours 12 min.
I am not really familiar with Dear Jane quilts. Are they a specific pattern or can you do a variety of different blocks?
