Dear Jane

Post by roseytoes » Wed Jan 16, 2008 7:39 am

Who else is making one of these? Someone pm'd me that they were also doing the Dear Jane BOM from Stitchin Heaven. That message was deleted
(probably over 30 days old). My old brain can't remember who it was. I received my first block patterns and fabric yesterday. I love the fabric they picked. It's going to be a interesting journey.

Hi Roseytoes, I'm signed on to do this DJ BOM. The fabrics are beautiful. Seems challenging but look forward to beginning this journey. I'll be with you all the way!!

I have the book and rulers, I didn't sign up for the BOM - But I really do need to get started on this, but don't have enough repo prints, how many blocks a month do they send you and if you don't mind how much does it cost?

Thank You PastyAnn - I looked at the site and the BOM is full, I could just do it on my own, do they go in order of the book?

patsyann06 Did you get the DJ software? I did. I was just playing around with it. I love the fact that you can print out the pattern with the seam allowance. I have my Grandkids today. Tonight I am going to try block A1 with scrap fabric and see how it goes. Some of the triangles on the outside of the quilt look very challenging! I'm glad someone else here is doing this. I am sure we will be chatting about this every month. Have fun!

Littlebit, they are starting us with Row A, 1 thru 8 and triangles
TR1 and TR2. They don't give you a pattern you have to have the book so you should be good. Join in this will be fun!

I haven't got the DJ software as of yet. Maybe it would be easier if I did. On Amazon it's about 50. To draft each pattern takes some time. I do have the Linda Franz's Inklingo Templates CD, and that is very helpful. Where else could I get the software?

I was just looking at the book and really think (unless you want to spend a gazillion hours measuring everything) that you need the CD - Rosie with the CD are all seam allowances included in the pattern? I just looked at one place that had it and the only seam allowance it showed was for the outside edge, just want to make sure :)
Thank You
