Rainbow Jane K-2

A little on the wonky side but I've found that steam helps a lot.
Blocks also straighten out quite a bit when you sewing them together with the sashing.

Steady progress

I should count how many melons Jane appliquéd!
She clearly loved them.

Rainbow Jane J-10

This took about 12 hours total.

It turned out better than the original, I think.
The main reason was that I used the "freezer paper on top" method for the new one and I had used the "freezer paper inside" method originally.
I you have paper inside your shapes it makes them just a tiny bit larger and, on a block this little, it makes a huge difference.
If the shapes are too big, you really have to squish them into their spots.

Rainbow Jane I-10

I had trouble with this one last night.
Finished is better than perfect, right?
