    Default Dresden Plate center design.....

    I just made up this design using the center Dresden Plate block and 1930's reproduction fabrics. Gave it to this young lady for her wedding gift.....she, too, had a horrible car accident that almost cost her life and had to delay her wedding for a year. She loved it! She loves "vintage" things, so I tried to adapt this to her liking.

    Lovely quilt and a happy ending, I love it! The 1930 repro fabrics with the white are sew pretty. I love the lattice effect surrounding the Dresden Plate.
