Just not in the mood to work on one of my larger quilt projects. So I made this Dresden Plate wallhanging out of some leftover Oriental squares I had.

I love your wallhanging and your quilting. What size were your Oriental squares? Making one of these is on my "to do" list.

I had a bunch of 5" squares. I believe this is a 10-10 1/2" Plate.

Your fabrics are fantastic. I can never find orientals even close to that. Just a wow project.

gorgeous

oksewglad 01-08-2011 08:42 AM

That's really pretty. I especially like the narrow border just before the binding and how it draws the eye into the quilt.

Terrific idea, using oriental fabrics for a very different look. Really nice!
