Met grote quilts vind ik het makkelijk met een schema te werken. Zo werkte ik bij de Dear Jane al met een kleurenschema voor de blokken dat rechts op de foto te zien is. Nu werk ik met een quiltschema. Ik zorg wel steeds dat ik iets voor lig op schema, zodat ik , als dat nodig is, een dag niets kan doen. I like to work with a scheme while working on a large quilt. I already used a color scheme for my Dear Jane as you can see on the right in the first picture. This time I use a quilt scheme. The trick is to work a bit in advance. That way you can always take a day off.

I am drawn to Dear Jane quilts at quilt shows because they are so awesome and because I am trying to finish mine! I saw two at the Denver Quilt Show (first two pictured here) and two at HMQS. It's amazing how different they all are. This one is called Friendship in Every Stitch and was made by Mae Elliott. It was hand appliquéd and hand pieced, then long arm quilted by Valerie Campbell. I took some close ups of the quilting because that will be my next step, after I get it all pieced together, and I wanted some ideas. This star block is one I've completed, but I'm thinking of making it over because I don't like the fabrics I chose for it. But look at that tiny star in the middle! I will dread that if I decide to re-do it. I think I will wait until the quilt is on the design wall and see if it still bothers me.... This quilt was pretty heavily quilted on the long arm. It looks great but I'm thinking of not quilting mine quite so heavily. This one is called Dear Jane Goes Batty with Batiks and was made by Patricia Lamfers. It was machine pieced and machine and long arm quilted. You can see it has different sized blocks amongst the five inch blocks and a different border. Dear Jane by Jean Ludeman She used background fabric around the border triangles which is different but effective. I am planning on using cornerstones, as she did, in the sashing. Very nice quilting in this one too. Ladies in Red by Crystal North and quilted by Wren Woodland Crystal digitized the DJ patterns and stitched them out on her embroidery machine. It turned out very pretty but I'm guessing it's a stiff quilt. I don't machine embroider so I don't know, but that looks like a LOT of thread! I haven't made my 12 DJ blocks for May yet. I better get busy!!

This quilt has been in the works for a while, and in my head I'd deemed it our 'end of summer/early fall' quilt. It's primarily made from a charm pack of American Jane Happy Campers, and I will allow myself the disclaimer that this isn't my first choice for binding. But it's leftover from a…
