    I have some blocks exactly like those that I did by hand. I counted the petals and it is also 19 petals, which I thought was a little unusual.

    Did you say you were selling them? Or was that another post?

    How cool is that!!! I've been looking for something like that!

    I'm going to stretch you out of your comfort zone. A woman in my guild put some like that with Kaffe fabrics. I know, I know. I thought "yuck", too it turned out BEAUTIFUL, and she won several quilt shows with that quilt.

    What a fabulous find! Wish the yard sales around here had such wonderful finds. Good thing a quilter got them and can find them a good home. Someone might have turned them into fancy rags!

    a friend of mine gave me about a dozen dresden plates that her mother had made. I have'nt quite desided what to do with them. They are all hand sewed. All done in 30,s prints. the ones you have are similar. I,ll get to them someday!!
