I had a tough time deciding between Dresden Plate designs. Love the spokes, love the scallops, love the plain circle. So after seeing all the blocks you guys were coming up with, I finally made a decision that only Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary could make--I picked a block nobody else had made yet!
It was a HUGE thrill for the machine-pieced wheel to come out in an actual circle! The wheel and the center are hand-appliqued, which I thought might be more precise than machine, but it's harder than it looks. And I have a lot to learn about ironing with starch! I'm hoping it will be an interesting addition to all the wonderful blocks you guys have already made.
It looks amazing! Thanks for bringing it to the meeting...can't wait to assemble the quilt.
