Please explain... What's Dear Jane?

Please explain... What's Dear Jane?

Dear Jane is an intense quilt made of 4.5 inch square and triagles, all in different patterns. It is an old pattern first made in the 1800's by Jane Sickle (or Stickle something like that)

I have a friend whose daughter is getting married later this month. I decided to make one of my fusion blankets, but in a sofa blanket size. Her colors on their registry are dark jewels and very contemporary / modern in style. So ultra boring, I don't do well w/ boring projects. We'll see how far this gets. ...................................... Wonder which anniversary is the "yarn" one?????? lol lol lol

I feel for you, Kass, doing something in colors you really don't care for. I'm like that with reds.

Here is my Wavy Squares afghan in the final stages. When I crochet out the rest of this skein of Jadite yarn, it will be complete. It was supposed to be a lapghan, not big enough to cover a queen size bed.

ETA: Just finished this market bag. I like the texture it has with the single and double in the same stitch in rounds.

Okay, I need some fresh eyes and honest opinions about this color combo, please

Gorgeous! It's been a while since I've posted here. I've been playing around with a size 1.30 crochet hook and some thread... What's the first thing I make?

A hen, of course. It was all a pattern I made up going along LOL I'm happy with it though, I'll probably make a few more. I call her Micro.
