I thought about alternating the Dresden blocks with a blank block (since I don't have enough plates for the full quilt), so I could do medallions in those. That would probably look neat. I do wonder if the quilting will get too dense for a bed though. Maybe it would be a good opportunity to brush up on my trapunto.
No, it's blocks. If you look carefully you can see the seam lines. But I posted that picture as an "OMIGOSH" - it's over the top, must have taken 1000 hours to do (well, almost). I wouldn't worry about the quilting being too dense.

AndiR - gorgeous quilting!
