Hard to believe that it’s been almost 4 years since I started this challenging quilt!  Dear Jane has a center area made up of 169 square blocks that finish at 4.5″.  I have 131 of these blocks finished — here are 39 of them (each row has 13 blocks).   Soon, I’ll have six more rows put together, but it will be a while before the last 4 rows appear here (maybe next summer).  The borders around the center squares are made up of 52 pieced triangles and 52 one-piece triangles and 4 kite corners.    I’ve learned a lot doing this project — mostly to measure, measure, measure — and try, try, try to sew straight!  Sometimes I wonder if maybe machine stitching is more difficult than hand stitching . . . but I’m not willing to give that premise a try just now!
