Which fabric should I take for the centre? And is there something "wrong" with the selection of the wedges. I could still change.
thanks for reading.

I think your choice of fabric is perfect. I would use the solid yellow as a center. I have made two dresden plate quilts and I used the yellow centers. Good job! Can't wait to see the finished quilt.
Peace and Blessings,

I think your plate is beautiful, there is nothing wrong with it at all- as far as the center goes I guess it would depend on what overall color you want the plate to "read", yellow draws out the yellow, same with the red and blue centers, any would look wonderful.

Love them all!

I like the red & the blue centers :)

I like the overall fabric selection. Will all of the the plates be the same selection? If so, I'd go for a selection of solids for centers.

Or .. have you tried a dark solid? Brown or black?

I like the red one best.

My favorite is number one, but agree with c1bendt that you should go with whatever color you want the quilt to read. Nice work!

I like the yellow, the solids seem to make it "pop"

I love the wedges b/c they have that old fashioned look that I love!
For the centers the yellow in the last photo jumps out at me the most. I like the solid but they're all nice. :D
PS. Just looked again and like the blue too. I like them b/c they are different from the wedges I think.
