Dear Jane Quilt - Slow Stitching Sunday + 300th Follower

Dear Jane Quilt - Slow Stitching Sunday
Dear Jane Quilt - Slow Stitching Sunday
I am pretty laid back when it comes to timescales I take to make a English Paper Pieced quilt - I am in no hurry.  However, once it is no longer portable I tend to get less time to work on it and it seems to take for ever to come together.  I am at that stage now with my Dear Jane quilt.  I have at last got all the Dear Jane square blocks together, along with the sashing and the cornerstones and I am now finally working on the border triangles.

 Also I would like to welcome Laura Bender who is my 300th Follower on my blog!

Time to join up with Kathy at Slow Stitching Sunday.

    This is looking so good. It's such a great feeling of accomplishment to see the blocks come together. Paper pieces is now selling EPP pieces to EPP Dear Jane. You were a step ahead of them!

    Your DJ is gorgeous!!!!
    While not of the same caliber project , I understand your "pain" as I am also at a stage where I am attaching borders at home and then struggling to find a traveling size project when I just want to get the big one finished.

    I note that you have the edges of your triangles stitched down with a running stitch. Good idea.
