    Default lots of dresdens!

    I posted in a previous thread my frustration with making mini-dresdens, and had some great advice, however, the wrong ruler LOL ...

    as a result, I ended up with tons of blades, and very few of the ones I actually wanted ... so here's what I have done with them!

    Now to just put them all on fabric!

    Now that is making lemonade from the lemons and it’s gonna be very nice, I can’t wait to see it all done! Kudos to making something it into something else.

    Great save - How would it look if the border wedges had the points turned out, to match the middle section.

    I like the points turned in but I would turn the corner ones out. Whatever you choose it is going to look great. Be sure to post a pic when completed. Great job!

    I like the idea of them pointing outward too. Worth a few minutes to switch them and see if you like it too. Perhaps switching two sides so you can compare and see what you think?
