It sure is! Actually, the pic doesn't show all of the blocks...I just realized that. I swapped 2 sets (24) and added another 6 to make it 30 blocks plus the sashing. I think it made a fairly nice size. It is shown on a full size bed.

Jenni,
You did a wonderful job of laying out the blocks, adding the sashing and putting it all together. You should be very proud of your efforts.
Did you join the nex one for spring?

I have not tried to do a dresden and feel it may be above my skill level. I'm pretty much self taught and have only been quilting for about a year. SO I think I'll watch this one. Might be doing the Red, White and Blue though.

I have done many different dresden patterns and this is a very easy one to accomplish. You may want to use some scraps and do one block. If you decide not to do the swap, you can use it for a throw pillow. Follow Deb's tute and you will have no trouble. That is what I did and had it togther in no time.
