Isabel's Dresden & Old Lace
 

My granddaughter helped me when I demonstrated how to do a Dresden block one month at the International Quilt Study Center & Museum here in Lincoln Nebraska. She had so much fun with the demo, she dug through the stash I had brought and found 2 fabrics which coordinated (and she didn't like) and by the end of the day, she had done a complete block. On the way home we stopped by my house and grabbed some muslin, and an old lace curtain. A few days later, she quilted the block onto the layered muslin/lace top. Shortly after she did the quilting of the "rays". Then she did the binding. This is her first quilt. It is so pretty! Oh, and BTW - she now loves it, despite the fabrics not being all bright and teen looking. Here you can see it hanging in the Lincoln Quilters Guild Show earlier this month.

very nice!!!!

She did a great job - guess you will have another quilter in the family

nicely done - and i love the lace idea

wow, another quilter, good job. Barb

She did a good job, now on to her next project.

Very pretty dresden block. Your DGD did very nice work on it.

What a fun way to finish the block--she will always remember the time she spent with you and the quilt she created. Nice work!

Great job!

Lovely. The lace really sets it off nicely.
