    Absolutely - they ARE fantastic!! I would never have tried a Dresden the old way, but with my ruler it was too easy. :-)
    I love the fabrics you used!!

    That's really lovely, Peg, good for you! I think if I tried to make a Dresden Plate, it would look broken. Even with the ruler. *G*

    When I saw this earlier I ordered one for myself, love the dresden plate pattern. I have two wip's, one is with 1930's repros cannot wait to finish them. Love your choice of fabrics, it's great for using up all of the scraps.

    I love this! Sounds good, I've always wanted to try Dresden plate, but somehow it seems so diffucult. Thank you for sharing
