This Bright Jane block is done by English paper piecing, sort of.
Not too shabby, but
I will have to revisit the how-to instructions before doing another.
There has to be an easier way to get that center done.
I hand pieced this star block for my first Dear Jane quilt
made in Civil War Reproduction fabrics.

It looks a lot better now than it did
when I first made it about 8 years ago.
The boys decided they wanted to put blocks up on the wall this week.
The bigger one wanted to put the step stool on the table so he could reach higher.
I said it was not safe to do that.
The little one repeats everything
so he is learning that some things are not safe.
Not sure they noticed that half the blocks are on backwards.
I have been sewing up buffs for our church summer camp.
Lime green ones and purple ones.
Now I remember why I stopped trying to sew t-shirts.

Looks like they had a ton of fun playing with those blocks - budding quilters!
ReplyDeleteIt was their idea this time.
DeleteKids love to get creative, don’t they?!
ReplyDeletePRICELESS!! The boys certainly look like they are having fun. :o))
ReplyDeleteToday they took all the blocks off the wall. It was their idea. And the little one put them all in the box so nicely and patted each one before getting the next one.
DeleteEight-pointed stars have always been a challenge for me. Great 'lil helpers you have!
ReplyDeleteThank you. this star is only 5 inches.
