lois usually in about a week it will show up on youtube:)

Ok here is my scrappy dresden. I cut each block out by itself LOL ok didnt read instructions. will do it her way next time LOL

I plan to lay mine and pin and then do blanket stitch not fuseable. I did that technique once and didnt like it so much; lots of work.

photobucket again being stinker and wouldnt save resize UGH so here is giant dresden LOL all from scraps I just randomly pulled from bag:)

OOOOooooooo..Ahhhhhh..Pretty..

..MY choice over batiks any day..
I'm with you, Izzy..about using a different method..
I am going to do mine the way she did it in the Egg Money Quilts book and adapt it with the 4 points..the center I am going to piece the ovals to my center circle like I did before on another Dresden I did a gazillion years ago..

..I am looking for the original now..Sonya.

Edited for spelling..naturally..

Question after you finish your sampler how long do you have to send your picture if you want to try and get it into the book.?

Lois I think I will pin and hand stitch dresdens down; then will fuse the lil red leaf centers down and stitch around. I may cut a circle of fusible and iron to dresden to keep it in place as I sew it. I really want mine to look antique:) so I want to do it by hand:)

I have all my blades cut for 9 dresdens like her quilt:) I cant wait to see how they look all together. I am sewing the 4 sets now. I still have to cut out all my red points and leaf centers. or what ever you call that center LOL

izzy

I am guessing you will have about a month after last show maybe longer:) it always takes while for book to publish:) but if you do a quilt each month you will have longer to work on them:)

No problem at all lois:) So have you decided on color scheme for yours yet? are you going to do the quilt each month or just the sampler blocks?
