I have made 2 dear Jane quilts. 1 in all shade of pink and 1 in all blue. I did all the applique blocks by hand. I also hand quilted my quilts, was really challenging. You can quilts each block using a variety of shapes that will miss most of the seams. My blue quilt is a real treasure. I used a different setting for the quilt using blank squares which I also quilted by hand. There are so many different settings out there using her quilt blocks they are really fun to do. Good luck with your quilt, you become really addicted to doing the Dear Jane I enjoyed every moment of making mine.
Hi I’m in Australia, and just found (again) my Dear Jane quilt pieces..paper and cut up fabrics…I started it in 2018, but COVID and life just got in the way…so here I am, caravanning and browsing for Jane squares!
Jane was bedridden while making this quilt, but the cause is not known. I think this quilt was a life saver for her during a very difficult time. It’s also my understanding that she went to a design school, and that’s why her designs are so advanced. Your quilt is beautiful and definitely a labor of love! TFS!
Thank you for your kind words. I love to learn about Jane and I agree that quilting definitely has been my therapy during times of trouble or sickness. I hope to get my quilt out again this winter as I get over my covid brain fog.
I am sewing on the binding. I chose to have a scalloped edge. I did have a sheet of progress and realised that I had packed it away for ten years. I didn’t think my skills were up to it. Now it’s nearly finished. This quilt has taken well over 10 years. I also foundation pieced all but the hand appliqué blocks. I finished the quilt during Covid. Quilting went on hold due to my husband passing and my own health. My friend quilted it for me on her long arm.
Very interesting to hear you tell of what you have learnt during the time you have been working on Dear Jane. I purchased my copy of Dear Jane last week, ordering from Amazon, it was a reasonable amount but I think that's because they've just bought out the 25th anniversary version😁. I was watching Jennifer at "Calculated stitcher" on Flosstube, loved hers and the passion she has for quilting. I shall be.going to look at some fabric tomorrow 😝. Thanks for your time. Stay safe
Je débute le patchwork car j'ai vu ul y a 2 mois une vidéo sur le Dear Jane. Je suis tombée amoureuse. Et 45 jours après j'ai beaucoup appris et réussi 52 blocs ( certains ont nécessité plusieurs heures de travail). Bonne couture

You are encouraging me to get mine back out and finish it!

I am still working on mine and I can see taking 10 years!! It becomes a lifetime companion thru the good times and the bad

It's a quilt that is so beaten and difficult. You have made so many blocks already!!
Love your blocks!
Thank you!
Amazing blocks, Vicki! ❤️
Thanks, it's a slow but steady process!
My hat goes off to you!! This isn't easy!
Thanks, not at all easy but if I take it slow then it seems to work out
Can I ask where the fpp templates are from please?
