Quilting row F has boosted the yards of thread count up to 655 yards. This row was mostly stitched in the ditch, but a few blocks have some different stitching designs.
Left side triangle 8 and block F1. LS triangle 8 is stitched in the ditch. I also stitched crossing straight lines in the bottom triangle. The triangle was supposed to have had ovals appliqued onto the pointy end and those nasty teeny, tiny triangles on the seamline beside the inverted M. Perfect circles to the rescue! F1 was completely stitched in the ditch.
Blocks F2 and F3. F2 completely stitched in the ditch. F3 has a nice quilting center so I quilted the 4 little hearts. The rest is stitched in the ditch.
Blocks F4, F5 and F6. F4 and F5 are both stitched in the ditch. I added straight V’s in the blue triangles for F4 and added a curvy square to the inside of F5. F6 is stitched in the ditch but quilted curvy V’s in the white squares.
Blocks F7, F8 and F9. I did not want to ditch stitch F7. I used a flower stencil and quilted that design over the top of the star. A second petal extended into the blue border. It is hard to see but I like it! F8 and F9 are both stitched in the ditch.
Blocks F10, F11 and F12. F10 is stitched in the ditch with an added curvy square in the center. F11 and F12 are both stitched in the ditch.
Block F13 and right side triangle 6. I quilted around the appliqued melons and circles in F13. You can’t tell from the picture, but they puff slightly and look very nice. RS triangle 6 is stitched in the ditch. Triangle 6 was a very interesting one to piece but is really an attractive block.
I also did some secret Christmas present sewing this week but, sorry, can’t show you anything.

love to see your Dear Jane complete – looking forward to it!
Love watching your progress on your DJ
Such a pleasure to see these lovely blocks each week 🙂
As usual Dear Jane is looking great. I enjoy watching your progress and seeing how you decide to quilt everything.
Looking sew good!
Love your progress, the blue and white is stunning, I have plans to tackle a Dear Jane soon and yours is a great inspiration. Look forward to seeing it complete.
Lovely work! My DJ is sobbing for attention…I am still in the piecing stage but haven’t worked on it for a long time. I plan to bring it back out and work on it in 2016.
I started piecing my Jane and couldn’t stop! I hope 2016 is the year you finish your Jane.
Your quilting is gorgeous. Love seeing the progress you are making.
This is going to be so beautiful!! You are making great progress 🙂
So fun how you quilt each block differently with so many unique designs!
Your progress looks so good and I love all the different quilting designs you are using. Thanks for sharing on MCM!
