This 21-piece Dear Jane block,
L4 - St. George's Cross, came together so quickly, it surprised me -- probably because it took more than a week to make the previous 41-piece block. It's not just the number of pieces and their size; I was more focused
Draft, Fabric, Construction
The draft was fine; I changed nothing. I later realized that Jane, Brenda, and I each pieced the small white pieces around the corner squares a little differently, however, the overall effect is the same.
The fabric largely obscures the cross. In fact, the busy pattern in the fabric makes it hard to see that I included nine fussy cuts in this block. The same fabric was used for
B13 - Four Corner Press. I thought when I made B13, I wrote about the fabric choices for that block, but it appears not. I'll have to do that some time, since it was an interesting choice.
Dear Jane Progress = 144 Blocks

This totally knocks my socks off. I really, really love it. I love those wee tiny flowers and how you've arranged them. Nice, really nice.
I can't believe you're actually doing this! But you are. I so lack the stick-to-itiveness for this kind of project. Well, not to mention I can barely sew on a button.
