The Jane Stickle Quilt – Row H

The eighth row of the Jane Stickle Quilt is up! Each image below links to the PDF pattern for that block. There is also a consolidated download for the entire row, which includes a table of contents so you can jump to a specific pattern.

I recommend you cruise basic instructions. It explains the different templates and my sizing methodology.  I am doing my blocks slightly different from the Dear Jane book. I am making 5-inch blocks as Jane Stickle did versus 4½-inch blocks like the Dear Jane book. 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.

Easiest block? H13…only two sections of foundation piecing.
Hardest block? Curved piecing continues to frustrate me and I decided that H6 with all its quarter circles wins that award. I resorted to appliqué for that block in frustration. H8 was a close second and I resorted to reverse appliqué to finish that one. Surely, I’ll conquer curved piecing one of these days?!
Most pieces? H8 earns that honor with 43 pieces.

I have done my best to proof these patterns but there will inevitably be something  that slips through the cracks. Working so close with a pattern, I sometimes miss the most obvious mistakes. So, please be kind when pointing them out. ?
