Well, this is my 7th host in one year...and (Patrice thinks that I am nuts...) I have discovered that if I take the time to post the tutorial (even though many of us are seasoned quilters) with the finished block, it really takes out all the guesswork. I know for some the tutorials are not necessary, but if someone is just getting the courage to join, being very specific helps them. And I like the addition of the leaves, it really changes the look of the traditional Dresden plate block.
