Dear Jane

The Jane Stickle Quilt – Block L6

Block L6 is foundation pieced. I totally disagree with the rendition in the Dear Jane book. The individual pieces within the block did not proportionally align with Jane’s block. It took some time fussing in Electric Quilt, but I think I got pretty close. Oh my, there a lot of pieces…47 (51 after I add my sashing strips)! So it definitely took some extra time to cut and assemble. But I must say it’s a pretty cool block when done! 🙂

PDF pattern: Jane Stickle - L6

Note: Unit A and Unit B in the pattern are for the sashing. I chose to make 5-inch blocks like the original rather than sash 4½-inch blocks. If you prefer to add your sashing when your blocks are all finished, just eliminate the A and B units from my pattern. The center sections will then be 4½ inches finished in size and you can add your sashing later.
