Final Dresden Seasonal Swap - Winter
#171
TWO STUPID QUESTIONS-
1. I am having hard time placing the leaves in the right place and then ironing them down. Is there a trick to this or do people just eye it?
2. The idea of glueing them down and then sewing on the plate and center sounded good to me. I used my spray baste to "glue" down the plate and center. Is there another way to do it? I had DH bring a very big box to the house and I was going to use it as my mini "spray booth" to spray baste the back of the plate and center. I did one this way and I liked it but I wonder if there are other ways?
Well I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend. I sure am!

Darling, we all have been there. My block isn't from my mind, but from all the stuff that has been thrust upon me at home! I started two quilts for my kids for Christmas, ready to do the top of the adults in the quilt as you go method, and then finish Emma's Fairy Tale Princess - but life has gotten in the way of life! Now heard that my cousin, husband are coming from NH and bringing the granddaughter.....it has been suggested that they find an inexpensive motel nearby so they can come and go at their leisure. I am in the middle of my own pointsettia blocks as well.....it is no wonder that I can't find my seam ripper, nor my other little scissors or those last sets of leaves.....

I saw this swap a couple of days ago and am so impressed with the poinsettas. I would like so much to join you all but untill I can find my way around this board I'm afraid swaps are out for me.
Hopefully you will have the dresden plates again next year. Maybe by then I'll be able to get around on this board.
