I love her blog..and it is a clear to understand tutorial!
i have a template, but it is really big, i got it from Nancy's Notions..i need to dig it out and see if it has the marks on it to make different sizes. Thanks!

Your husband is quite right! You can't sit on that beauty!

I showed it to my husband and he said no way are you putting that in a chair...you need to make more of them like this one- they need to be a quilt! LOL I used fabric scraps I bought for a dollar at the Ozark Folk Center in Mt. View...I guess a Dresden quilt has been added to my WIP's!! LOL The plate itself is about 14" in diameter and the finished block will be 16 inches.
