So I made my dresden plates and I show it to my boyfriend who then tells "me they look like little ties"....he is so cute. I always find it amazing how men can see different from women. Here is a picture of my dresden plate using thimbleberries and moda fabrics.

Very beautiful colors. Yes a tie is part of a man's world and he would relate it to his world.

I love the great big center of your block. It reminds me of Black eyed Susans!

I cut my dresden plates from a die I ordered from Accuquilt. I have the Studio and I love it. I also had a custom dresden plate made, its a larger version of the one they sell. I'm going to use it to make a lap quilt. I have attached a picture of how my quilt will look when putting all 13 dresden's together. i'm working on other quilt blocks to fill in around it. I had to stop working on it recently as I am making christmas projects. Pretty soon I will continue and when its all done, I will post a picture of the finished item. Thank you all for the nice compliments.

Your dresden plate is so pretty! Now that you mention that your boyfriend thinks they look like little ties, I kinda see that myself :)

Sewnique 10-15-2011 03:51 AM

Very pretty!

tweezy50 10-15-2011 04:38 AM

I made one and put it on the back of my sweatshirt. The first thing DH asked was, "Why did you put ties on the back of your shirt?" MEN!

sally taormina 10-15-2011 04:52 AM

I love the colors in your dresden plate. I am about to get started on one and kept thinking of doing it in the 30's material but seeing yours makes me rethink my colors.Good job! It really does look like little ties.

Riversong 10-15-2011 05:04 AM

Love the colors in it!
