Another Dear Jane block

My daughter, Melanie “From Scratch” is having a give away of cookbooks on her blog.  If you are interested in cooking head over to her blog and see what she has.  She is a great cook and it is her way of relaxing when she is home from work.

I got a few new plants for the porch.  I have a 3 tiered wrought iron planter that I bought years and years ago and occasionally remember to get plants for it — it has 3731069106_ede98a0907been awhile since I have used it.  I need to re-pot the plant in the middle as it is pot bound.  The other two just need the hangers taken off and the price stickers.

I managed to get one more Dear Jane block quilted today on the “Insanity” 3731069762_71a9720942quilt.  I am almost finished the with the sixth row.  If I would have been working harder at it the last couple months instead of working on the Christmas quilt so much I would be closer to the finish line!  Oh well, it will get done one day.  This block is from row F #11.

Here is one more photo of one of the quilts at the Madison Quilt Expo 2008.  This one is called “Rhapsody in Motion” I can’t see who the name is on this quilt that made it, but I bet whoever did it designed it herself.  It looks hand quilted to me.
