BR-6 Frank's Rickrack
This one took me a while. I redrafted the triangle so that the center piece came to a point. This was a little more like the one in the quilt. I'm happy with the result.

More Dear Jane
I'm about 4 or 5 blocks behind the Dear Jane blog. Partly because of our vacation to Disney to celebrate our daughter's 4th birthday and partly because I'm SO slow at applique. I'm hoping to catch up a little this weekend.

B-6 Wild Goose Chase
Once again I did the block in the wrong color and had to redo it. The blue one is my first attempt and the pink is my second.
I changed the way that I'm tracking what colors I'm doing. Hopefully this will be the last wrong color! :)
Blocks Redone
I've finally gotten around to posting some of my blocks. Here are the ones I had to redo in the correct color.

I must really like green......
Because I've already done two Dear Jane blocks green that should have been yellow. I guess I could swap them around, but the perfectionist in me will probably re-do them.

More Dear Jane Blocks
I've been working more on my Dear Jane blocks. I was kind of dreading B-3 Mirror Image. I hate piecing curves (especially after almost completing a version of this quilt). So I decided to use a different method that I saw on TV here. I thought it worked pretty well, but the fabric didn't release from the freezer paper very easily with the glue stick. Maybe I used too much glue. I'm still pretty happy with the way it turned out.

Dear Jane update
I've completed a couple more blocks for my DJ quilt and I'm especially happy with this last one. I really love how much the blue and white contrasts. I'm using bright rainbow colors and doing a modified version of Jane's Trip Around the World style.
I've really enjoyed learning how to applique as well. I never thought I would like it because I thought it would be tedious, but it gives me something to do while watching TV with DH.
