    Beautiful, Lots of hard work. I know a labor of love. I love Dresdens too. I'm in the process of making one. Not nearly as big as yours. How did you attache your plates? And my plates are larger.

    A dresden plate quilt is a great way to use up all those little pieces that you HATE to part with!!! I have a TON of those!!

    I have decided Friday night I am going to re-organize some of my sewing stuff, my stash (that has been pulled and pulled and is about to meet me in a heap the next time I open the cabinet doors), my quilt class files, patterns, scraps, etc. Its in desperate need of tidying now!!! I also feel after reading and admiring such talented people here and their work, I have to add some new projects to my already growing list!!! So my project book is in need of some serious updating!!
