Yes, pre wash all fabric. I have Robert's fall blocks, and will post a pic of his. You can also see what the block looks like (only with the spring colors) if you go Flowers that Bloom in the Spring trala trala. This is the same block, we are doing a three part swap,spring, fall and winter.

If all of you look at the first page of this thread, I have posted a pic of Robert's Fall Dresden Plate. Thank you Robert for allowing me to use your block as the sample pic!

It is a very simple block to do, though it is not one that you can rush through. I found that the best way to center my block was to fold my background fabric in half then into quarters, iron about 2 inches in from the edge, and I could line up my plates that way. I cheated and did the glue stick thing.....every other petal/plate I put a little gab of glue to hold it down.
