Dresden plate quilt blocks are so popular right now on many quilting sites. The block has always been one of my favorite designs. I began mine last Fall and just put the center on it yesterday! I decided on the cherry fabric for the center of mine. I hope to get more done soon!
Anne Sutton of Bunny Hill Designs has a free pattern on her site and has formed the Scrappy Plate Club. A great way to use up scraps! Although mine is not made with scraps I have bins full of leftover scraps. I so need to use them! :)
I have one more border on another quilt top I have been working on forever! I will take pics and post it as soon as I get it finished and pressed really well.
And then there's Tiny Town I am working on! I like to have an applique project in progress along with a pieced top so when I am watching television I have some handwork to do.
That's all for now ... gotta do some organizing of scrapbook supplies!
Thanks for visiting and have a wonderful weekend!
Hugs,
Donna

What a beautiful quilt. I do not do any hand sewing but I cannot sit in front of the tv without my knitting or needlepoint. I am not a real fan of tv but I like to keep my husband company and we do like movies at home.

Looks like old-tyme fabrics. Cute.♥♫
Your Dresden Plates are so sweet, love the fabric.
Love yours! I'm going to start Anne's. I haven't decided if I'll use my scraps or buy the kit from Fat Quarter Shop. I don't think I have enough cute scraps to make ti something I'd like. :-) I have tons of scraps, but I don't think they'd coordinate as nicely as yours. Very well done!
What a sweet block! I love the cherries in the center - it really adds the perfect touch to this cheerful block!
Oh my how beautiful! Love it! Hugs & Blessings, Cindy
It's beautiful, Donna! Was it difficult to do? It looks hard! Worth it though. This is going to be a gorgeous quilt! xo Jen
A lovely block, Donna.
I really love the cherry fabric in the centre.
I like to have handwork while I am watching TV too.
Have fun scrapbooking!

Dresden Plate is one of my favorites. I remember in the 70s, my mama and I each made one.
