OH DEAR, Jane!

Back to Dear Jane.  I spent ALL AFTERNOON working on one block.  Just a sweet, simple little basket block named "Rebecca's Basket" in the book.  Not hard on the surface, but remember that the book only gives you a picture of the original block and a line drawing (which was flawed).  It took more than one trial and error stab at it, but I finally succeeded.
I'm up to 16 blocks now.  Here are a few of my more recent ones.
I continue to enjoy the problem-solving aspect of tackling each block.  I use whatever method a given block seems to call for, often a combination of techniques.

Dear Jane by Brenda Papadakis, 1996.

I would enjoy the problem solving but I am not sure I have the patience.
