Well I did it – I brought the Dear Jane quilt to North Little Rock today and delivered it to my daughter Melanie:
you can hardly see her but there she is under her new quilt
I finished one more block last night -
Row 12, Block 12 (L-12)
14 blocks left to make and sew the final two rows together. Then it will be set aside until the fall most likely and then I will get started on the borders. Now if I can just stay motivated to keep to this schedule!!

I’m saying it again; GORGEOUS quilt! I’m sure Melanie is thrilled by it! Not much to do on #2, you’re working really fast Karen.
…I meant to say; not much left to do…
Of course it is a lot of work on such a quilt…

I like to keep my quilts for awhile too before I give them away. I’m sure Melanie is pleased that the time had finally come to get her quilt.

What a lucky girl. I don’t know if I could bare to give a DJ away…. even to one of my beautifull daughters. ;o) Maybe one day.
You are working those blocks for DJ#2 so quickly. Not much to go now.

Melanie looks so happy under her gorgeous quilt!
WOW! I totally forgot about the borders until you mentioned them…here I was thinking you were almost done!
I want to thank you for you showing how to machine zigzag batting together…I did it on 9-patch quilt and it worked fabulously! (I thank you on my blog post today too.)

Melanie looks VERY happy to finally have her quilt LOL. I really think you can get those 14 blocks done….if you don’t get distracted with a new project or something LOL.

Way to go, Karen!!! Your quilt is beautiful, and it will get a lot of loving.
It’s really beautiful Karen, you outdid yourself! Melanie looks pretty happy with it too!
