5.0 out of 5 stars LOve it, August 11, 2007
This review is from: Dear Jane (Paperback)
I made a twin size quilt using some of these blocks. There is a whole world wide group of people making this quilt. The original is on display at the Bennington Museum in Vermont every Fall. I've seen it and it's beautiful in person. I LOVE this book. It does NOT come with instructions. You can get tons of help by going to the website of www.dearjane.com

2.0 out of 5 stars Like a cookbook without the recipes...., August 3, 2007

This review is from: Dear Jane (Paperback)
Dear Jane is a complation of the two hundred and twenty five blocks from Jane A Stickle quilt. If you are a pro quilter you will probably be able look at these drawings and figure out what goes where. For the rest of us, who require directions, you will probably wish Papadakis was a bit more thorough.

Its fine to identify the blocks. I could probably do that given the time. But a drawing and the block name does not constitute a 'pattern.' It might be more accurate to say this book has pictures of each block with a diagram but no instructions.

Overall, I expected more. The Jane Stickle quilt is a masterpiece but this book was useless unless you just want to identify the blocks she made.

This review is from: Dear Jane (Paperback)
This book has patterns for each of the 225 blocks in the Dear Jane Quilt. What the book does not have are instructions for making each block. While this quilt is designed for an experienced quilter, I expected some instructions. I was able to find instructions and hints for making each block on the CD that I purchased separately for making this quilt. This book of patterns was $26. The CD with instructions was $40. There also is very little information regarding the amount of fabric required. There are also no instructions on how wide to make the sashings and borders to end up with the exact size needed for the triangle borders to fix properly. This will be the 26th quilt I have made using various sewing techniques. It will be a challenge to complete the quilt as perfectly as I want. Hopefully the combination of the book and CD will help.
