Dear Jane Quilt - Draw 39 - D7, J4, K6, K8
Dear Jane Quilt - Draw 39 - D7, J4, K6, K8
I clearly had a plan when I started this Dear Jane project.  These crosses will be placed strategically throughout the final quilt.  I am not sure where yet and I haven't started to put the blocks together yet.  It will have to wait until all 225 are done.  There are 56 Draws altogether, so Draw 40 indicates that I am 70 % of the way through.

Moving onwards,

Draw 40
A8 - Florence Nightingale
D13 - Field of Dreams
G5 - Poof
J12 - Rebecca's Basket

This Draw will be in Green

Another day, another Dear Jane block.  Here is K6 Ann's Folly which is the last in this set.
I am steadfastly using my English Paper piecing method, but over at The Objects of Design you can see a masterclass in doing these little 4.5" blocks by machine.
