Oh my what a beautiful job. This is going to be one gorgeous quilt. Enjoy the process.

This is gorgeous!

So pretty! Love the purple!

oh my that is just beautiful... i have never made one but looking at yours sure makes me want to... no i think i would rather be your best friend that you send it to me for my bday...lol... it is beautiful.. just love love love it...

I cut the flowers out of a shear organza material, leaving 1/8 around the flower just to make sure I caught all of the flower when sewing. Glued them in place. I set my machine 2.5 wide and down to a satin stitch 5. I did the inside outline of the petals first, then the outside, in the center I used a leaf design and shortened it to make the middle cover up. Be sure to sew the flowers in the (background) first. They came out very pretty to look at, I am amazed at myself lol. Syl

Can I ask a silly question too? How long are each of your plates? Did you use a Dresden ruler? I love your design. Dresden plate is one of my favorites. I made a few Christmas blocks for a swap when I first joined the QB. We used a pattern that had a specific template. I really would like to make a giant one. Thank you for showing yours and for your directions for your centers.

I Love the purple, it's my favorite color, the center looks very interesting, send us instructions on how to make the center. It looks great, and keep up the good work.

Love the centre flowers really looks great.

I cut them from an old template I've had for 20 years. lol 8 inches long 3 inches wide at the top and 1 1/4 at the bottom
