Dear Jane quilt completed in two weeks?

Yes....I'm kidding. No one could complete a Dear Jane quilt in a few weeks. Or could they? Can you believe this "convenience cloth" Dear Jane??? A woman from the Black Swamp Quilters brought this in to show the rest of us gals. Now.....I think that there Dear Jane quilt my kind of Dear Jane!!! Just sandwich and stitch around the pieces....from a distance no one will know the difference.

I can just hear the booing and hissing from all my Dear Jane enthusiasts friends. Its like thinking you've been to Paris if you've watched a movie filmed in Paris....ain't no comparison!!! But that may be the only way I ever get a Dear Jane quilt.

Smiles,
Kelly

  1. Wow!! I'm working on a DJ, although not very diligently...and I think that's great for someone who can appreciate the art but doesn't want to piece the whole thing. Was it 44" wide or was it bigger like backing fabric?

  3. What a great idea I have many friends on the Dear Jane road and not making alot of head way, this is one way of really upsetting them

  4. Using a cheater cloth for a Dear Jane Quilt, or any other quilt, would be like going to a car show only to learn all of the restoration was completed by a professional and not the owners.
