Dresden Plate Further Blocks

Here is another Dresden Plate block plus a block showinghow half a Dresden Plate can also be used as a block. Two great blocks to build a quilt around, wheather it be a lap quilt or bed size.

Dresden Plate Tree Skirt

Another innovative project that can be created with the Dresden Plate template is creating a Tree Skirt. Create the Dresden pieces in the usual way but leave a opening so that the skirt can be place around pot plants or trees. Bind the inner edge with matching bias binding. Again this Dresden Plate pieces were made from mens ties.

 

Dresden Plate Block

A play with the Dresden Plate design. Here l have used mens ties. Unpicked them, washed and template cut out. It is looking great.....might make a few more to make a lap quilt or maybe cushions. What do you think?
