My Batik Dear Jane

This week I began my Dear Jane journey. There are two women in my local guild that are joining me. Are we crazy or what? Here are my first four blocks. I am not happy with the first one and will probably re-make it. Even though the motto for Janiacs is" finished is better than perfect"

    Oh you are so brave. How many a month will you be doing? I could do 4.... but then it would take 20 years to make, right?

    I especially like the 2 blocks on the left. So pretty.

    I'm not so sure that brave is the right wording ;o)Crazy maybe...

    Your comment got me thinking if I was really ever going to be able to finish it in my lifetime so I did some figuring - 5 blocks per month = 60 per year. 60 x 3.75 yrs = 225 blocks = Dear Jane! Not your average quilt in a day/weekend.
