I LOVE DRESDEN PLATES!!!!!!!!!! They are my favorite pattern. A friend shared a Dresden Christmas Tree pattern and I have it almost finished. There was 40-different "blades" in it. Beautiful! Keep up the good work.

I started a Dresden plate quilt from a kit. It showed how to join the plate together and thats all. I now have all the plates and don`t know how to attach the center or make the quilt.
Any idea where I could get a compleat pattern?

Beautiful work. My first Dresden Plate didn't turn out very well. Mine absolutely refused to lay flat. I gave up in frustration. My second one was somewhat better, but still not perfect. That one ended up being used as a tree skirt for a small Christmas tree for my daughter. A friend told me I needed more accuracy in my cutting. I'm sure that is true. Maybe I will try again for spring. Thanks for the inspiration.

It's beautiful, she will love it, I do. I have always wanted to make a Dresden plate block, but it looks too difficult - maybe this will be the year to try something new. Great job!
