Hi LaQuita, welcome to the group!
Like Mirabelle said, the 6 " Sylvia blocks are very manageable, they're mostly regular blocks. The book provides directions and templates.
The DJ blocks are different ,no directions or templates, no regular blocks and they're 4.5" finished. Lots of tiny applique pieces.

Some use scraps as background and some have the same background. It's up to you what you want and what you have.

Welcome LaQuita! I'm using scraps of lights/darks blues and brown tones with a little yellow/gold thrown in. Look forward to seeing your progress with the blocks too.

The next three blocks on my journey to catch up. I admit that this is not my original Dresden Plate. My curves were uneven to the extreme. It went in the trash and I made points!

I might be out of sequence but these are the blocks I already had made for this month.

Robbing Peter to Pay Paul,,,,,,well after three attempts and much cursing I decided that I had given it my all and failed soooooooooooo I made Star of Destiny instead, hope the quilt police won't lock me up

Still have to catch up on the other 6 blocks but I will get them done!!!!

Auntjo, your blocks are wonderful! Look at all the points.......perfect!!!

Mirabelle, I hear you I did that block 2 or three times too and decided once in the quilt it might not be noticed it's wonky. I don't like that Peter/Paul thing!!! You made some gorgeous blocks
