Would it help, to have a drawing of one (or two)? The original Dresden Heart seems to have 20 sections, each at 18 degrees. I plotted the angles, traced a heart in the center, then used 1-1/2" circle template, for the curved sections. Came up with "DHeart20." Then I decided to try making it a bit more defined, so shared a piece for the bottom of the heart, and divided the top into two pieces; this resulted in an odd number of sections, so had to increase the angles to 19 degrees, except for the bottom (which is slightly less than 19 degrees).
Maybe you can use one of these, for a guide . . . or tweak it a bit. Print out and add seam allowances. If it doesn't work, maybe it'll at least give you a starting point.
Now to see if I can post the pictures, without reducing the size too, too much!
