This week's catch up work

March 24th, and it's snowing. . .   So crazy! If we hadn't moved from Florida, I'd've been in shorts and flip flops for a month already.  :D

Got 8 more Jane blocks finished this week:

Small Start

This is my first post to this group.  I finally got around to starting my Traditional Dear Jane.  I have done 8 blocks so far.  My plan is to work concurrently on a 30's Dear Jane, since I'm nuts.  LOL Here are pictures of my blocks.  I hope I did this right.

Some Good Catching Up Progress

Woowoo! I got 10 babies finished up this week that were lurking in my hand-stitch tote. Heather thinks this set is rather Transformer-ish. Too bad that top green one isn't bigger for the head.  ;D

Here are the individuals. The top one - well, I bust  up laughing when I read a note I'd put in the book when I bought it 2 years ago. Scott was sitting next to me while I was perusing it, and when he saw the G-5 block, he said: "This is what it would look like if a quilt farted."

Men!  ::snort::

Progress on Jane border blocks

Here are the Triangle blocks and final KITE block that I've completed since the start of the new year. Just 7 triangles to go and the outside borders of my quilt will be complete. The plan is to finish this quilt top before month's end!

Wishing you all a Happy and Productive March!

every quilt tells a story....

Hey there!

I got 4 Baby Janes finished today. There's a whole load in my hand-stitching tote - hopefully those will start flying into the finish pile quickly now that I have no bindings, labels, or hanging sleeves to do.  :)

DEAR JANE cross stitch - DEAR JANE EN PUNTO CRUZ

I know many people who like the patchwork, also they like cross stitch embroidery. So I show you my progress in this cute embroidery and anyone who is interested in the pattern you can see in the publication that did a while ago (here).
Thanks for your visit, comment and have a nice week.

Se que a muchas personas que les gusta el patchwork,  también les gusta bordar en punto cruz. Por eso les muestro a ustedes mi avance en este lindo bordado y para la que se interese en el patrón lo puedes ver en la publicación que hice hace un tiempo atrás (aquí).
Gracias por la visita, tu comentario y que tengas una linda semana.

I'm Back!

So glad I haven't been dropped from this list, it's been quite some time since I posted!  I've made a few blocks so far this year and finally loaded my Dear Jane software onto the computer.  Due to being down with a bad cold for a few days I've been learning how to use it, and hope to start scheduling myself some blocks so I can actually finish this year.

I've started adding my blocks to the chart, it's quite a job!  I have a lot more blocks done than this, these are just the ones I've found pictures of on my computer.  Since I upgraded to Windows 8 last month I've been struggling with getting programs to run correctly and re-loading the pictures I want.  I figure that tomorrow if I have some daylight I will re-take pictures and see if I can fill the chart up more.  It's kind of fun and a good activity that's fairly restful.

I plan on scheduling myself 5 blocks a week.  I want to machine quilt it, since I've seen some lovely ones that are finished that way.  I might even splurge on a wool batt, I hear they are lovely to work with!  Excuse me if I am rambling, the cold med's make me a bit loopy....

I'm glad to be back and making progress on this project - I've really enjoyed it so far and am looking forward to being able to print up the paper pieced templates instead of having to trace them!
