So glad you finished your quilt. I am up to hand sewing the binding. I chose scallops too. This quilt got started, then put away as I didn’t have the knowledge to make some of the blocks. Ten years later I pulled it out again and completed it in 2020. My husband got sick and passed away and although my DJ was pinned on the long arm I didn’t have the mojo to quilt it. Then I found that I had cancer and that has been an ongoing battle. I got secondary bone cancer in my left arm which impacted on my ability to do some things. My friend took my DJ and quilted it for me so now it’s up to me to get the binding finished and put a hanging sleeve on it. Another dear friend cut the bias binding and sewed it together for me. Thank you dear friends.

I was lucky enough to hear Brenda do a lecture at our quilt group. I loved the story that Brenda went to Jan'es grave and found that the headstone was crumbling and she was able to collect enough money from "quilters" to purchase a new headstone for Jane Stickle. Wonderful story.

Lovely presentation. My poor DJ has been languishing in a box for a long time. Your wonderful lecture has reignited my desire to work on and finish my Dear Jane. Thank you.

What an amazing quilt, and congratulations on finishing it. Jame would either be proud, or think anyone who makes one is crazy!

I’m going to make one trying to get the pattern. You can do one a little at a time.

What a beautiful quilt! I saw a Dear Jane at a quilt show a couple years ago. I had never seen one before. It was amazing to see up close. The quilter had her planning binder there too.

The quilt is displayed sometimes in May where there is a local quilt festival. I saw it and it was displayed in an upstairs room with a light shining on it. I was horrified that it was not under more security! Ugh. The museum also has a nice collection of Grandma Moses paintings.

I talked to a woman in the gift shop and she said that she worked there six years and had never seen the quilt. When I saw it about ten years ago it was only displayed for three days. So call ahead. Displaying old quilts is very risky and I have never heard of it being displayed every year and more than a few days unless they have added a special atmospheric display unit.

The first question asks where Jane Stickle got her fabric. We've done more research and have learned that Jane was an invalid at the time she made the quilt. The pieces are small, and could have come from her scrap bag, and she could have swapped with neighbors.

I bought the Dear Jane book 2yrs ago thinking I'd give it a try. I said a emphatic NO when I saw all the blocks were a mere 6"! So many tiny pieces! I admire your fortitude and dedication to making such an amazing replica. Did you piece it by hand? It is truly the most awesome quilt I've ever seen. Would love to see the original. Thanks for sharing! 💖

Did you hand quilt this using a wooden rolling it up as you go frame?
