Found free tutorial for a block I love
 
I originally found this civil war dresden block at http://northerndeb.blogspot.com/2009...0s-quilt.html# and wondered about the process to create it. Logically I knew the process but wanted the details. Well today I happened to find a tutorial on the web here: http://laren.blogspot.com.au/2012/04...den-plate.html
That outlines the process with great results. Thought someone else might appreciate having it. Enjoy! Ann in TN

Thank You. I also needed the details. This will put me on my way to making one of my favorite blocks.

Pretty cool block. I saved the links and would like to try it one day. Have been working on DJ...so have collected more CW prints than I actually need.

Thank you so much for sharing! I have added this one to my "to do". Love the civil war colors.

Thank you for the link. And I learned something today. Nope not about the block about me. I have done dresden blocks many times and am a little bored with traditional designs. I basically thought. "Oh another dresden block whatever" and was going to pass it by. Something told me to go ahead and look anyway. I did and I am really glad I did. While Civil War fabrics are not something I like.. I can see using this technique in other ways. So note to self don't be so sure you have seen everything to do with traditional blocks. lol

What a wonderful idea, just love how easy it is.

MamaBear61 01-28-2013 06:27 AM

That is a very pretty pattern, I must give that a try.

WMD926 01-28-2013 07:34 AM

I have never been a fan of the dresden block but with this addition I really love it. Thanks for the link to her site.

catsnchina 01-28-2013 07:41 AM

Thanks. I love the Dresden spike block -- first time I've seen it. Love Dresden blocks and have made several different types of wall hangings plus one lap quilt. Thanks for the link to the tutorial.

I just saw the Civil War fabrics block and was delighted to find a tut for it. I would have made it far more complicated. I LOVE the Quilting Board. Thanks for your efforts.
