Okay -- I need to start another new project like I need to gain 10 pounds...
but I'm starting one anyway.
One of the local quilt shops is starting a Dear Jane club that meets every other week... and I need something to regularly get me out of the house during out long, dark Michigan winters... So, I've decided to join. The next meeting is next Thursday.
That means I need to do Dear Jane blocks.
I've ordered the software -- and I have the book. So far... so good.
Now I need fabric. Let me say that I do have enough fabric up in my sewing room I should be able to do at least a dozen quilts. But most of them are brights, and novelty... and I don't think those would be right for a Dear Jane.
I've never done much wth civil war repros... and batiks always make a gorgeous quilt. Or maybe red/white/& blues....
I don't know. What I do know is that to keep it simple getting started it would be easiest to buy a couple of FQ bundles to give me enough variety to get going....
So give me some suggestions! What colors do you think make the prettiest Dear Jane blocks? Where is the best place to find FQ bundles at a reasonable price?
Any guidance is greatly appreciated.... I still think I'm nuts... but I think forcing myself out of the house all winter long will be a good idea.
Thanks in advance....
