Quilting Lady Jane

I've gotten behind in posting about quilting Lady Jane. Here are pictures before I rolled the last time.


Left side.


I don't know if you  noticed in the first picture so here is a close up. See that sideways V? That's the center of the quilt, I'm a little more than halfway finished!

Left side blocks.

Center applique.


Right side blocks.

Right side border.


You've probably noticed the pins at the top of the quilting. I've shown these before. Several people commented they would scratch themselves while quilting. After I roll and start quilting again, those pins are at the bottom of where I quilt. I take each one out before I quilt that line. I never get scratched. They're just markers to remind me where I stopped.

    Looks gorgeous! I like the idea of using straight pins to mark where you stop/need to begin. ~Jeanne

    Your Lady Jane looks amazing. I keep checking out the pattern on Nancy Rink; it is so tempting to want to do the piecing and applique. I love all your projects for the last few weeks: the indian corn, the Guernsey cow, and the broken dish quilt. So many creative things! I am also contemplating the quilt show in June.
