Default Batik Dresden Plate - Made this for my brother

I just got this back from the Maggie, a member of CAMEO Guild who does professional quilting. The quilting is done all free-hand. This is the second Dresden Plate that I have done. I think this is one of my favorite patterns.

I still need to do the binding, put on a hanging sleeve, and make a label. Although, I do need to name the quilt. Any suggestions for the name?

"Beautiful Dresden Plate". That is the name of it. I just love it. So bright and beautiful.

That is about the most beautiful dresden plate quilt I have seen. The quilting on it is wonderful, too! You both did a great job!

"Hello Gorgeous" describes it perfectly. Just outstanding.

That reminds me of garden flowers, pinwheels, and wind. It is gorgous. I name in something like Garden Spinners, or Spinning in the Wind. No matter what you call it, it is beautiful. A rose by any other name smells just as sweet.

"Shades of Dresden" would be appropriate. I love it! I just had a customer ask me for a bright quilt for their log cabin in TN. Boy does this fit the bill!

"Hello Gorgeous: Beautiful Dresden Plate" I think I like that.
