I have a much better familiarity with the blocks and how I might go about piecing them now.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07948593936644150069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8494445491796614668.post-61195209691116226982010-01-04T22:40:23.059-05:002010-01-04T22:40:23.059-05:00I saw the mother quilt in Sept. 2009.

I thought about doing this in an easier way - say, printing our a block or two at 4" or 4.25" (Chase a myth for example) and adding wider sashing... but never did. But maybe you are a little insane, who knows. It doesn't stick out in a group of Janeiacs.viridianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07938256248645774087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8494445491796614668.post-76595658236622537962010-01-03T16:43:31.645-05:002010-01-03T16:43:31.645-05:00I bought some thread from connectingthreads.com an...I bought some thread from connectingthreads.com and really like it a lot. I just ordered some more colors. There's a sale on thread until the 4th (tomorrow). It's not tangling and twisting like most of the thread I've used. I mostly only have Coats & Clark and a couple spools of Gutterman. This Essential Thread is thin but nice and strong. I'm really pleased with it. The outer purple ring was appliqued with Navy from their Floral Set. Hearing from you also helps to keep me going.<br />Thanks for writing.<br />ConnieAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07948593936644150069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8494445491796614668.post-42707905247385237872010-01-02T15:13:58.357-05:002010-01-02T15:13:58.357-05:00Nice block. Thanks to you, I started my Dear Jane....Nice block. Thanks to you, I started my Dear Jane. I am about to make the "yellow blocks" (the ones around the middle block). I decided that I needed to get better thread before continuing the challenge. Thanks for sharing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
