Adhesive Thimbles

 

I just bought them today and have yet to try them.
Has anyone tried the new adhesive thimbles?
Do you like working with them?

Another Row, Another Poem

Jane's quilt is ingenious, inventive, imaginative, impressive, and inspired.

Its impact is immense, illusive, immeasurable.

Immersed in idolization, I (and others) itch to imitate it with an independent interpretation.

Are there imitators in Iceland, Ireland, India, Iraq, Israel, Italy, and Indonesia? Inevitably.

Indeed, it is iconic. 

Row I 

9 rows done (A through I).

4 rows to go.

52 blocks await joining.

One block done for March!

Phew, just made it to get one done before the end of March! This is C13, Lakota Sioux.

Hopefully I should be able to get a few more done over the Easter break!

And now one triangle

Productive Dear Jane week for me as I finished stitching a triangle that I prepared last month. I now have RS4 Dutch Apron finished:

which takes my numbers to: 114,7,0,2437.
I need to get back to the cutting table to prepare more blocks now.

A few of my Modern Janes

Here is a sampling of blocks that I've completed for my Modern Jane quilt.
I recently started this quilt for a class/club that I'm teaching at a local shop in VA. I created a 13 month structured program for my students to follow along with. The ultimate goal is for everyone to have their quilt tops completed at the end of the program.



Although my local students are starting month #3 of the club, I just started a new blog a few weeks ago sharing my 13 Months of Jane with my online friends. I'm starting at Month #1 for those that wished to start at the beginning. Here is the progress I've made on my Civil War jane as well:




I really enjoy seeing all the beautiful Jane blocks shared in this group!

Back to Jane with one block

 I did it! I completed one Dear Jane block this week. I had prepared the pieces for A-10 early in February in the hope to sew it while we were at my Mum's for a few days but I only picked it up this last Sunday. I sew my block over 2 evenings and it is now finished: applique and reverse applique.

I have also added the sashing on A-3 yesterday evening.
I am now at 114,6,0,2426. 55 more blocks to finish the centre and 3 more blocks (A1, A2 and A4) to complete Row A.
