Here's part of the Dresden Plates I've been working on (between looking & blabbing here... LOL!). My DH took this picture & it looks pretty pitiful. I didn't realize how wrinkled the background blocks had gotten -- I pulled these out from under a stack on my sewing table. Sorry. They look pretty sad but I think they'll clean up OK. I plan to put large circles over the centers. That's something I wanted to ask y'all. I made these (sewed them together, that is) back in the early 90's (1990, not 1790, you guys! Golly! LOL!) & needless to say, they don't make that kind of fabric anymore. So I don't know what to use for the centers & borders. Any suggestions? Like I said earlier, these were the last thing my Mother & I worked on the week before she died so even tho they may not look like much, they mean the world to me (& I'm keeping the quilt that they become!!!).
