Dear Jane Quilt - the Halfway Edition!

Dear Jane Quilt - the Halfway Edition!

As promised here is the latest update on my Dear Jane quilt progress.  I haven't pulled out the blocks since the last update in February and it is like meeting up with old friends.

I don't lay them out in their correct order because it is so incomplete, but the Electric Quilt image below gives an idea of how it is going to go together.  The eagle eyed will notice that their placement is not the same as the original Jane Stickle quilt either.  That is the plan.

The white blanks are slowly filling up and some of the lines are nearly complete - it's just like playing BINGO! If you pop back to the post in October 2015 you can really see the progress I have made in the last six months. On the sidebar you can see this image updated regularly, but I like to capture a snapshot in these progress posts for a sense of progression.

From the pretty piles of blocks above and the statistics in the table below you can see that I have yet to do a PURPLE block, which will hopefully pull the final colour scheme together.  You can also see that I have added those little extras to the data below - the sashing, the cornerstones and the alternate triangles.  It all has to be done and then I have to think about putting it together and removing those tiny bits of paper.

	Blocks	Triangle
Red	13/29	4/8
Purple	0/12	0/8
Blue	12/20	4/8
Green	8/28	4/8
Yellow	16/36	4/12
Orange	40/44	8/12
TOTAL	89/169 (52%)	16/56 (42%)
Sashing	17/312	(5%)
Cornerstones	28/144	(20%)
Triangles	5/56	(8%)

I have spotted other bloggers out there working steadily at their Dear Jane quilt. UKCityCrafter is building up a lovely collection of Dear Jane blocks in blue and white, the contrast is going to be stunning when it is put together.
