I love it!! I am making dresen plate blocks for our groups birthday blocks. Everyone picks their colors but the block pattern is up to the one making them. What size blocks are yours. I think it is stunning. I am going to have to make a dresden plate quilt for myself. Great Job!!!

Absolutely gorgeous! Dresden plate is one of my favorites... I've made several of them and yet to have one for myself. You did a great job!

My blocks are 14" finished, I used 5" blades but you can make it bigger or smaller depending of what size blades that you use.

It's gorgeous, and you SHOULD be proud! It's so satisfying when you try something new and it turns out well. It's kind of like playing a slot machine--it keeps you coming back for more!
