This is a lovely tutorial, thanks for telling us. Can anyone just tell me how do you do the back? I mean, the prairy points is double, but what about the rest? The wrong side will show if you make a dresden plate to use as a teapot stander? Any suggestions how you can kwilt it on its own.

turn under seam. At this point you could choose to use a thin batting. Cut that the same size as the fusible web. I used the fusible web between the batting and the backing circle for some stability. Once the back was fused, I pinned the layers together and did some stitching in the ditch along the long lines of each pie piece. (Note: if you forego the batting, simply fuse the backing circle to the Dresden top and skip the pinning part.) To finish, I simply did a blind stitch to secure the edges of the backing circle.
Option: before blind stitching the backing circle, you could cut small pieces of batting to place into each of the points. I chose to do this, and to help secure the pieces I used the fusible web on the bottom side of the batting.
Hope this was helpful!
