Not sure what OBW stands for... I used a different template and layered all of the fabric layered perfectly on their repeats.... tacked them in place and then cut stacks of 12 blades. :)

Hope darling daughter appreciates this ugly thing. What a nightmare, curves, points, applique, whew, glad that's over.
Off to sleep & tomorrow need to work on grandbaby's fairie quilt for her 3rd birthday this summer. [ATTACH=CONFIG]416642[/ATTACH] |
Love these blocks. That paisley block is a stunner.
|
Jenniky, I love your paisley block. Like Sulabug said it sure looks like a OBW.
djmat, I like your block. I think it has a modern appearance. Spent yesterday at the ball field watching grandson play so today I play! |

Not very fond of Steeler Nation colors, thought daughter would want more colors than yellow, black, grey & white in this quilt. I have to add 12 more ugly blocks to make the queen layout that she wants. Glad I'm halfway through!
At least I'm learning new techniques. Thanks, Jen!!! |
Jen, I really love your paisley dresden, it is awesome!

Djamat - The colors are nice, just don't think of them as Steelers colors.
Thimblebug I like the floating planet. It's a happy block. I'm cheating a little, this is the one I did for the Craftsy class last year I still haven't done anything with it. I may make another one in a different style. I used scraps for the blades, the pepper fabric was from a shirt I made my DH last year also. [ATTACH=CONFIG]416859[/ATTACH] |
WOW you're all so fast!
Jenniky, I love your paisley block! Djamat, I don't see anything ugly, I love it! Thimblebug, yours is beautiful too! Like Dedemac said, it's floating! Dedemac, I love your different style. It looks like it's rotating! |

These blocks are awesome! Can't decide it I want the points or rounded. I did pull out a main fabric that I've been saving & only have a small amount of. I plan to use it for every other blade. Maybe I can start today
|
Dedemac, I didn't even notice it's "floating" :D I was so concentrating on getting a motif centered on the circle....
|
This is really pretty, I love the super swirl look of it!

This is neat, it looks like a spinning windmill. :thumbup:

Well I made a small mistake on my Template, but rather than toss it I tried to add more blades. It worked but now my block is too big. It turned out to be a 16 in block rather than the 12. So I think I might use this as either a Pillow sham or a pillow. I think it turned out pretty good, but I will make another one correctly tomorrow.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]417067[/ATTACH] I will just have to use different fabric, I really did like the background fabric but I only have enough left to make a matching Pillow, so I will have to use something else. |
thimblebug, love your floating spirograph planet, wow.
dedemac, wow yours is moving! nice color arrangement! can hardly wait to see the others, but gotta get cracking on 3 swaps that need rotary cutting. Will check in later in the week. Have a great one, ya'll. Hugs, DJ |
oh, mary love your black & whites!
|
I like all the different blocks you all are doing a great job. Mine is finished but for some reason my computer is not letting me upload pictures to this site or others. So until I figure it out I can only look at yours.

Marytoddliz- I have ran into the same problem of ending up with a larger DP then intended and thus have gifted several nice pillows to family and friends. :thumbup:
MamaHen - Your DP is fantastic.:thumbup: Im curious as to how your point tips are a different fabric. Is that a result of the print of the fabric... like in the Paisley DP I shared??? :confused: |

[ATTACH=CONFIG]417151[/ATTACH] Jenniky- Here is a close up of the blades. I only stitched in the ditch across those points when I appliqued the DP to my background fabric.
|
Marybethiz I really like your background too, it will make a great modern looking pillow or sham.
MamaHen yours is gorgeous! I love how much character the added points give it. The colors are wonderful together. I hope to have mine done tomorrow, I think I'll end up with an oversize block too so may do the whole thing over. |

I just finished mine. Each blade of my Dresden Plate is made with Iris print fabric's & I love how it turned out!! Everyone's blocks so far this month are amazing. Enjoy ladies!!
:D :D :D :D |
Love how you did your background...all of them together look fab!
|
Sulabug that is going to be one very happy quilt. You DP is just amazing.
|
Sulabug- WOW... love you DP I concur with all the above posted comments. I have to say though I especially love your DP. The Iris fabric has a definite WOW factor in my book. It kinda of gives it a stained glass effect I think. :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:
