30's Jane!

I'm making slow progress on 30's Jane.
It's fun.
I do love these fabrics.
I've decided that this time I'm going to keep track of the number of pieces as well as how long it takes me to make each block.

So far:

A-1 (28 pieces, 50 minutes)
A-1

A-2 (40 pieces,60 minutes)
A-2

A-3 (9 pieces, 105 minutes)
A-3

If you'd like to join the Block-of-the-Month or Fabric-of-the-Month, there is still time. We'll start on the 2nd Monday of March.

  4. I love those prints, someone asked me how long it took me to make my quilt, I had no idea as I never kept track. I would think that this time round it will be easier as you already know each block.

  5. Lovely prints! It reminds me of a project I started several years ago - to make 3 inch Jane Stickle blocks in actual 30's fabrics or real feedsacks. I must get back to that project.

  6. I love thirties too. I saw a truly amazing DJ made from those fabrics when I went to the Chicago Int'l Quilt Fest a couple of years ago. Your piecing and applique skills are quite impressive.

  8. I have not yet started my Dear Jane quilt but I am planning and trying to decide what style and what colors it should have. But I have done a lot of test-blocks and I think it's great fun! If you think my blog is suitable for "jane-bloggers" so feel free to add me there. All of your blocks looks fabulous. Happy colors and perfection. :)
