And yes, more Dresden Plates! These are the last of the ones I’ve made up for now… not quite finished. 5 plates made, 2 appliqued down, 3 to go… and then need to add circles.
Will have yellow centre when finished…
This will have white with pink…
Will use the purple spot…
Pink/raspberry spot…
The teal spotty fabric…
I had another one of these marked up, a lovely soft mauve with a purple/mauve spot, but realised both pieces of fabric where too narrow for me to pick one for a centre circle. Will see if I can pick up some more fabric before making it up.
Enjoying these Dresdens so much I’ve bought myself a smaller Ardco template – for 6 inch curved Dresdens. Wanting to start to applique the 14 inch curved 1930s Dresdens I’ve been slowly putting together for awhile, and then put the smaller Dresden over the seams.
Speaking of Dresden’s check out the Dresden Plates in Quilting Group on Flickr…I heart Flickr!
Have put all of these aside for now, as I need to finish up my Stitcher’s Angel gifts… planning to sit and stitch while watching the Grand Final tomorrow.
