Did you do the April 09 blocks or just let them sit? I'm about 1/2 way through March but my men are gone tomorrow morning so I hope to get quiet time to work. I thought they'd be out for lunch but dh just said they'd be home. I need something in the crock pot! Joyce

Just starting my DJ 27 May 2008 16:02 #18769

Hi everyone!

Figured I don't have enough projects going at once, so I started my DJ this past weekend. I got 4 blocks completed and another 6 or so "set up" for hand applique. I plan to machine piece the pieced blocks & am using my yucky sewing machine, since the good one's in the shop, so that's keeping me away from the pieced blocks for now.

I can see why these blocks are considered addictive -- they are so much fun! I'm using the BOM's from Stitchin' Heaven, too, and I love the fabrics. I have collected 17 of the kits, so I guess it's about time I got to work! I'll post some pictures on my site!

Dana, how neat! 13 Dec 2007 00:06 #11076

QuilterLynn OFFLINE Posts: 1422 Thank you received: 4	I have always thought that particular block was the most interesting choice of fabrics I have seen in the DJ blocks! Neat, now I "know" you!

I started my DJ quilt on January 1, 1998....can't believe it's been ten years. So this week I was looking around on the website, and Lynn is right, it is a great site with lots of tips and experiences from those who have made the quilt. I had not looked on the site in some time and was interested to see one of my blocks still posted there from ten years ago: http://www.dearjane.com/pics.htm When you click here, mine is the first block. It is one of the few blocks I hand pieced.....I loved learning, but did most of it by machine.

Good luck to all of you starting the project. I know you'll love it.
