I could use a helpful hint on how to do a
Dresdan Plate. Does anyone have a
pattern that's easy to use, or some
quick tips?

Any help much appreciated!!

The pattern I use has 16 petals. I put 4 together, then square them before assembling.

Here is an easy Dresden Plate. Pattern is from Fons & Porter's Love of Quilting July/August 2007

Finished quilt - allows for errors in seam allowance unlike the traditional full circle plate which requires perfect piecing.

After piecing blades, use light weight pellon to turn the top edge under.

Trim carefully not cutting stitching line
