    YES! It is a Dresden Plate...my favorite of all quilt patterns and I'm :mrgreen: :mrgreen: with envy for your "find" in the green bean patch! Wow, certainly goes to show some peoples trash is a treasure. I'd chew tinfoil and comb my hair with a cheese grater to find such a treasure. Thanks for sharing!

    Great find. I found a similar treasure in Lancaster last year - full size quilt - double wedding ring in a junk store. You are sooooo lucky.
