So, I feel that I might mess it up, and I don't have time to practice, as this is going to be Christmas gift. So, I've got to get moving on it. I'm thinking maybe I might as well go ahead and make all the blocks with Dresden plates and do sashing witha 3 strip set with the cornerstone of each one being a little 9-patch. I did google as someone mentioned....seemed like most of them were ready-made bedspreads, etc. The handmade quilts I did see, didn't have any alternate blocks. I'm still open to suggestions, though. Thanks.
