Chookyblue and I decided to make some Dresden plates, using the Dresden ruler (which I just had to have, and have not used since Chooky gave me a demo over 12 months ago) on the weekend, this is what we came up with….Chooky has used Moda Madeira and I have used a fabric called Jitterbug – Cosmo Cricket..loved making these….now I have to hand stitch the plates to the background……

One charm pack and a little bit of white homespun and presto a table runner...this table runner has been made from the charm pack that I won from Sarah's online store, and I used every piece of fabric.... we have a bar on our back patio so this 'dress it up' a bit.....this is one of my little projects from our weekend retreat...and boy did I sleep well last night....
This is the second quilt that I made out at Carols....just charm packs (again), Moda..."Symphony"....very rich colours....I just added a 2 inch red border and then a 6 inch border in the black.....I think I may keep this one as a table topper......
