She's finished! I finished my Dresden Star Quilt. She ended up being 64" x 78".
The Dresdens petals were made with Darlene Zimmerman's Dresden ruler at 2.5". I made points on both ends and machine sewed them on to white Squares.
I started out with a layer cake of 3 Sister's Oasis and then added coordinating fabrics from my local quilt shop. She was such fun to make. It will be hard to see her go, but that's why I make them. :)
We also had the opportunity to visit some family in the mountains this summer. Oh, it was so beautiful, I didn't want to come back. But Back we are and next week my little sweeties start school and I have mixed emotions of excitement and melancholy. Motherhood is bitter, sweet.
I hope all is well and your summers were great too! April @ Little Mama Hen.
What a great finish! Pretty!

So so so beautiful! I just love dresdons and I have not seen this pattern before.
ReplyDeleteThat is totally impressive, especially to have a pieced backing as well that looks just as good as the front! Lovely fabrics!
