I’ve completed my three planned Dresden Plates and attached them to the quilt sandwich. In Susan Cleveland’s technique, they are attached to the entire quilt sandwich at this point, rather than just to the quilt top. Now I’m beginning the quilting! So far, I’m not quite sure what I’m going to do in the white background areas; I’m tossing around some ideas, though what I’d originally thought I’d do is probably not going to work. At any rate, I knew from the beginning that I wanted to crosshatch the centers of the plates, and that is now done, using free-motion ruler work. My lovely Bernina 790+ just purred through that process! Click on the photo for a closer look at one of the plates. 🙂

Beautiful, you are very creative I’m sure something will come to you to fill in the white.
Thank, Deena! It may take some time, but I will think of something. 🙂
