I just took a look at my backing fabric and it doesn't say (sometimes there's a label printed on the selvage). I'll have to check the next time I go to my LQS. This fabric would look beautiful in burgundy.

I'll be watching your page for new pictures!

Here is my Dear Jane Quilt top. It's really hard to get a picture of the whole thing. I have it draped over my sewing table.

OMG! It is beautiful and it is perfect! I am so proud of you. You have come so far. Remember when you first started? What an accomplishment.

Thank you! Yes, I've come a long, long way. My first block was finished in February of 2009, so it has taken me more than 2 and 1/2 years to finish the top. I expect the quilting part will take that long too!

Have you finished quilting your Dear Jane?

Oh Lord, I hate to tell you, but I haven't finished it yet. Maybe I'll be inspired and get it done this winter. :)
