I hope you have all had a wonderful week.
I spent half the day Monday finishing another Dresden Plate, this time the plate has curves. In the class I did on how to make Dresden Plates we learnt how to make the template from scratch so I am pleased that the template was right and the plate came together easily. I really love it and have decided to sew both plates on to fabric and place in an embroidery hoop.
I used a paper pieced hexagon from the same fabric as the backing to cover the hole in the centre.
I have 2 different size hoops so the Dresden Plates will fit snugly within them. These are going to hang in the sewing room once they are finished. I can't wait to add some colour to the walls.
I am linking to WIP Wednesday.
Luv dresden plates.....gorgeous fabrics :)
ReplyDeleteGreat Dresdens, my favourite block!
ReplyDeleteI love Dresdens and love how yours turned out! That's such a great idea--to showcase them in a hoop--I'm going to have to do that too! Oh, and I like using the hexie for the center too. All around great job!
