Dear Jane update!

 I finished this quilt top!!!  Hurrah!  I had always wanted to remake this quilt, lots bigger...wow, did I ever do that.
 The borders were the most fun to make, and the fact that I made the entire quilt from scraps.  I love that part!
 Lori, I just love this block, and I re bordered it.  The pink is very pink is real life...just playing here!
This was an orphan block, so I layered it up and quilted.  YES!  on my domestic machine, and there are no puckers.  Please note this fact down in the record books, please!!





DEAR JANE update.  I did work on it yesterday, but it was cutting all the five inch sashing strips, so nothing photo worthy...but I did accomplish something, anyway.

Please take a look...these quilters are working on Dear Jane, too!

The border adds so much to your plaid star quilt. It's a beauty.

Great star quilt!

Your Star Quilt is stunning! I love all the plaids and know what a joy it is to use scraps in a quilt. Lovely work on it and on the other two blocks as well. Your flowers with the pink trim is wonderful.
I finished sewing all the HST's onto the strip squares yesterday and now I can start sewing those squares into blocks! Bigger units will mean faster progress now :-)

Cute little floral block. Did Lori make it?
Okay--it has been placed in my record book. No puckers! Monumental! :)

It came out beautifully, Julie! Keep practicing that FMQ and you’ll be quilting up your scrap beauties in no time! Such a pretty little flower block. Play time is such fun time in the sewing room!

I love your star quilt. And to make it entirely from the fabric you had in hand makes it that much more special.

Lots of things going on!

Good morning, or evening to you!!!  I have been sewing pouches of different sizes, and I enjoy filling them with different things and giftin...
