I have a set of 72 Dresden Plates that were given to me. The fabric in them is really quite ugly, but I can't throw anything out. I have worked on it off and on the last two years, and have most of the edges basted and center circles have fabric softener sheets sewn on and are turned. I was planning on doing a Quilt as you go method, stitching around the plates with a decorative stitch with black thread in the bobbin. That way the back may look better than the front. LOL I'm a lilttle excited to see how that turns out, and someone will be kept warm.
