Dear Jane Wednesday

This week the challenge block was G11 'Decisions, Decisions'. In an effort to become bestest friends with my sewing machine I decided to machine piece and machine applique this one, I fused the diamonds with steam-a-seam and then machine buttonhole stitched around the edge.
DJ wednesday seems to be working out for me, my block chart is slowly filling up.

  7. Just caught up with your Dear Jane progress. Most of my January has been spent deciding which PROJECT I shall embark on - Dear Jane, Farmer's Wife or Nearly Insane. After a lot of thought, I Nearly Insane is leading in the running. Dear Jane a close second .... But yet to start either !
