Having gotten caught up on pink, and with a three day weekend to look forward to, I decided to pull out a UFO. Dear Jane has top and bottom borders, but it needs left and right to be finished properly. I pulled out the completed blocks and it looks like there are 10 out of the required 26. Not bad at all.
After a bit of time this morning, here is 11. It is block number 6 on the left side and just needs a tiny bit of applique to be added to the wall. I'll settle down for a little bit on hand work as soon as I hop over to Kathy's quilts to see what other hand stitching is going on this sunny Sunday. It looks like she has pulled out a UFO as well. With an extra day in the weekend, I will try to cross another block or two off the list. Hopefully Dear Jane won't be a UFO for too much longer.
That is a gorgeous quilt, Angela! Those border triangles look complicated - are they all paper-pieced? Have fun working on them today, and enjoy your extra day tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteHooray!! You can do this. I found that making the border triangles was easier than many of the blocks. Maybe it was my attitude about being near the finish line. I am doing the RSC with my remaining Bright Jane blocks, I am not doing the triangles because I already made each of them once.
ReplyDeleteBeen years since I made my scrappy Dear Jane it is so nice seeing yours - pretty!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely not bad at all! You are so close!
ReplyDeleteSuch intricate work. It's a challenge I want to do one day. Enjoy the day off! ;^)

ReplyDeleteDear Jane is such a special quilt. Started mine a while back and it is one that I want to get back to this year. Yours is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteStitching Dear Jane is such a big commitment, and a labour of love. Yours is coming along so well, guess you just have to keep it out where yo can see it and keep plodding away on those last blocks.
