Lookee what I found!

I am working on a Dear Jane b.o.m. through Stitchin' Heaven quilt shop.  I was looking for a place to store last month's completed blocks, and my eye fell upon a large sewing box that was hidden under a scrap box, under my ironing board.  That's where I kept some "orphan" Dear Jane blocks.  The yahoo group Canadian Quilter's Online had started a Dear Jane group (in 2006), led by Sandy, who introduced the blocks for the month and gave us suggestions and lessons on the best way to make them.  I have no idea now why I stopped... but I was surely shocked to find 41 - forty one! - Dear Jane blocks in my basket.  I had to count them twice!  That's enough to make a nice size wallhanging, or a medallion with a floral centre, or...or...  Well, another project to think about :)
