    Hello to all,

    I was wondering if anyone has a dresden plate table topper pattern. I want to make one for each holiday. I am a newbie and I really don't want to pay for the pattern, in case I can't make it. I love that block and I already have the ruler for it.

    Dresden Plate is a pretty easy block to find a tutorial on the net. There is a 12 inch one without the petals on the ends at Quilterscache- Quilt Blocks Galore look under the A-F section for the Dresden Plate.

    Here's a clear and well-illustrated tutorial for a table runner, you can always shorten it to one plate if you'd like.

    Scuddles, go here and watch this video. It's how I learned to do it and it is really easy.

    If you buy the template, then all your pieces are cut the same size and that basically is the pattern. I think they are easier to cut that way. And it gives you options of round or pointed ends with the template.

    Jenny from Missouri Star Quilting has a Dresden plate on You Tube. In fact, I believe she has a small one and a larger Christmas one. Check it out. I've done several of them, and they are reasonable to do. Not complicated at all, and look really nice.
