lots of dresdens!
 
1 Attachment(s)
I posted in a previous thread my frustration with making mini-dresdens, and had some great advice, however, the wrong ruler LOL ...

as a result, I ended up with tons of blades, and very few of the ones I actually wanted ... so here's what I have done with them!

Now to just put them all on fabric!

Now that is making lemonade from the lemons and it’s gonna be very nice, I can’t wait to see it all done! Kudos to making something it into something else.

wow, that looks terrific!

Tartan 04-11-2019 03:33 PM

​Very cute!

Great save - How would it look if the border wedges had the points turned out, to match the middle section.

SHELTIE'SMAMA 04-11-2019 04:12 PM

I like the points turned in but I would turn the corner ones out. Whatever you choose it is going to look great. Be sure to post a pic when completed. Great job!

Oh wow! that looks great. never waste fabric, that is your new mantra.

I like the idea of them pointing outward too. Worth a few minutes to switch them and see if you like it too. Perhaps switching two sides so you can compare and see what you think?

I love that! It’s going to be a very pretty quilt.

MarionsQuilts 04-12-2019 03:15 AM

Thanks all - great idea for the corners … will definitely do that!

Your creative mind is always working. These dresdens are so pretty. Can't have too much pink!

Marion, I love your posts. You are always working on something marvelous!!! :)

I agree with Tallchick. Your quilt (lemonade) is very pretty and so very interesting. Kudos to you for your lovely design.

Crqltr 04-12-2019 07:10 AM

Very pretty! I like this better than the more common Dresden quilts!

MicheleC 04-12-2019 10:25 AM

What a perfect silver lining. That will be a beautiful quilt!

Great improv!! Going to be so pretty....and look at all the pretty white space to FMQ...lol... Great job...

Jingle 04-12-2019 01:30 PM

Very pretty.

Karamarie 04-13-2019 04:00 AM

Great thinking and good luck on it. It will be great!

toogie 04-13-2019 06:02 AM

It turned out lovely! I am curious to know what Ruler you did use ...

Jordan 04-13-2019 07:17 AM

That is going to be so pretty. Love how you are using up the extras. No waste-that is the way to go.

Jordan 04-13-2019 07:19 AM

I think your placement would be cute if you put the corner dresdens pointing out and do half a fan if you have enough. Just a thought.

Mkotch 04-13-2019 08:55 AM

Wow! That's really unique. Way to go!

linmid 04-13-2019 10:37 AM

Am I the only one that does not see a picture of the quilt?

audsgirl 04-13-2019 08:26 PM

That's a really cute layout! It's nice to be able to use what you've put so much work into.

How strange I received this email and a picture of the blades are there. It will be a lovely quilt. Look forward to seeing the finished quilt.
