Welcome to my stop of the RED WHTE AND BLUE celebrations.
Thank you Madame Samm and Jane for putting the party together.
I hope you enjoy what I have to share with you today.
Dresden Plate Mini Quilt |
I used the EZ Dresden Ruler designed by Darlene Zimmerman for this beauty.
I was happy that it came with a table for block size, directions and illustration to follow. Very simple and I have another ruler to giveaway.
3" Star Paper Piece Table Topper |
Earlier this year, I took up paper piecing. I used a 5-point star paper piece designed by Carol Doak.
2" Star Paper Piece ATC |
That is my show for today.

ReplyDeleteThank you for the giveaway chance.

Judith I love your blocks. I've never tried the Dresden because frankly it scares me. :) When I was first learning to quilt my mother gave me a Dresden Plate quilt top that my grandmother made and I attempted to quilt it. Minimal quilting. Now I look at it and know that I need to add some quilting to it but I have arthritis in my hands so I'm not sure I could do it any more. But I do like paper piecing a lot so I love both of your paper pieced blocks. I'm going to look up Carol Doak's work - thanks for mentioning that. blessings, marlene
ReplyDeleteMarlene, here is Carol Doak's link to her website: http://www.caroldoak.com. Thanks for sharing and enjoy the blog hop. Judith, Texas
DeleteLove the Dresden block, the quilting really sets it off.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the inspiring block...and the wonderful give-a-way.
ReplyDeleteI like your star block but I have to say, I scrolled on down and saw the RWB Dresden plate table runner!!! Oh my goodness, that is so lovely!! You should have featured that on today's blog as well!! Oh I would sooooo love to win the ruler!! My 7 yr. old Granddaughter saw the Dresden plate design and wanted one of the rulers she read about (she is an obsessive quilter and stitcher at age 7!!) I would most definitely give her the ruler if I won!!
ReplyDeleteBlessings
Gmama Jane
Gmama Jane, Your granddaughter is a treasure. I just started quilting two years ago and I am still finding my way. Thank you for stopping by and good luck in the giveaway. Judith, Texas
DeleteBeautiful blocks, always love dresdens!
ReplyDeleteI managed to do a mixer cover with Dresden plates on each side - but I didn't have a ruler, I just winged it. I was lucky, and they laid flat & were mostly even, but, whew, it wasn't easy! I LOVE your table runner & block!! Thanks for sharing them with us all!! And thanks for the chance to win a cool tool!!
ReplyDeleteThank you for stopping by KC and I would love to see your cover. Judith, Texas
DeleteLove your block and I have to say I would love to have the ruler.

ReplyDeleteWhat a fun group of blocks! I like the background on your blog. Thanks for the links :)
ReplyDeleteI love your little quilts. I recently bought a small quilt display and am anxious to make a tiny quilt for it. I may mimic one of yours. Thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteI'm always looking for something that I haven't tried. This would be fun. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteDresdens are so classic, thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteYour blocks are happy and inspiring! Love the dresdon! would love a ruler to use. Thanks for sharing the designs and the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI love your blocks. I have wanted to try a dresdon so the ruler would be perfect. Thanks for the chance!
ReplyDeleteCute blocks I've made Dresden blocks before but with English paper piece not with a ruler. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThe best things about hops are they introduce you to blogs that you didn't know existed. Glad I found yours and now you have a new follower - me! Love the dresden block and the stars in the corners. Like the fact that you used a cookie cutter for the template.
ReplyDeleteI am happy you stopped by and enjoying the hop. Judith, Texas
DeleteI love your Dresden block, and I also love paper piecing!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win!

ReplyDeleteLove dresdens. Your blocks are wonderful and it's so nice to meet you!
ReplyDeletexx
Your blocks are beautiful! Thanks for the chance at the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteThe dresden pattern is indeed pretty. it is the first pattern that I ever made. I did not have this lovely ruler or a rotary cutter as I made it as a teenager and it is awhile since I have been a teenager.
ReplyDeleteIt makes smile thinking how far we have come in the notions department.
Regards from western Canada,
Anna
nice blocks - the dresden is so cute :)
