Well, I got my whole dresden appliqued to my block last night (including the circle!), and now I'm ready to sew two borders - one small accent one (to set off the darker block) with a darker outer border. I found the applique-ing part to be really fun, although it did take some time since I did it by hand (but time flies when you're having fun, so it was almost midnight when I realized how late it was getting!). I think this little table top quilt will fit perfectly on my treadle top. Can't wait to start quilting it!

I'm seriously thinking of making a larger dresden quilt now because it was so nice to have the handwork to sit on the couch and work on at night. I thought I'd get some of the small square plastic boxes as my 'traveling project'.

And again I say, give it a try! I can't wait to see more projects with this block. :)
