    Love them all, but agree the solid colors in center would make them "pop"

    Yes, like them all !!! Can't go wrong with any of them. I haven't done a dresden plate yet, but I see some new patterns out that have a prairie point at the tip of each, they look kind of nice. Greetings from Auntie B in Saskatchewan.

    Good tutorial on " you tube" about Dresden plate from Missouri Star quilt company. I am getting ready to do one.

    LOL I was going to say I like all the centers except the solid yellow. I actually like the scrappy look of having all different centers. Of the prints, my least favorite is the turquoise with the larger print. The smaller prints seem to work better as centers to my eye.

Absolutely love the color of the wedges. Typical 1930's.
    I agree. I like the red # 2.
