I LOVE your quilt! Your fabrics are great and using them in the sashing makes the quilt look modern and energetic!

Nice Dresdens.

Beautiful, just beautiful. As soon as I finish the special order quilt I am working on, I will be starting on MY quilt also. Isn't it funny how we make quilts for everyone but us? We are the quilt lovers, and we have less quilts in the cupboard than everyone we know, because we always make them for others. It is my turn next.

The plates are 5". The white background is 14 1/2 x 14 1/2". The sashings are 2" x 14 1/2". The sashing posts are 3 1/2 x 3 1/2". and just make your center circles as big or as little as you want. I had a total of 240 wedges. The quilt measures 54"x71". My pattern came from EZ Quilting, Make an Easy Dresden Quilt. It comes with the template, bamboo stick for turning points and the directions. It was really very easy to make. Just time consuming. You might be able to find it at www.ezquilt.com . Good luck.

Was wondering how big the plates and background squares were and how wide the sashing and corner stones. It would be a great QAYG as they would go together with the two sashings. Can't hand quilt (arthritis) will need to make is QAYG.

Many thanks for all the sweet comments on my quilt. I will post it again once I have finished the hand quilting. My daughter just informed me she wants this quilt. Can you believe it!! Guess I will have to make another one!!
