Dresden Plate Quilt Block

Got the template from this quilting magazine.

Chose a flower on the fabric to be the top center of petal. Outlined it on the plastic template and lined it up to other flowers on the fabric.

Didn't have enough fabric so I chose this green fabric to alternate petals.

Sewed the top of fabric and made points using the white plastic tool shown on the right of photo.

Sewed the petals, that I ironed, together.

I double checked that the petals were alternating. My plastic template, with flowers drawn, is peeking out from under the fabric to the left.

Ironing it flat helps as I sew them all together.

Once I cut out all my petals my fabric looked like swiss cheese. I made a smaller template and started cutting out petals for a smaller version of the Dresden Plate.

It is finished, except for the center. Still deciding on what fabric to use, and a design as well.

Classic Square Log Cabin Quilt Block

This is made From a Folding Oldies Book. There is hardly any sewing, mostly folding and ironing.

Cut out four sides and center from template in the book.

Sew sides to center square. I chose a butterfly fabric for center.

Once the sides are sewn, iron seams.

Flip over and get ready to fold and iron.

I'm folding and pining the pleats.

This is the second block I made and I came up with the idea to use my bread knife to get some knife pleats. (heehee) It really worked. Watch out, as knife get hot. And don't pull out fast if the blade side is in the fold.

Pinned and ready to sew. I had to weave in the edges into the edges of the next side piece

This is the second block I made.

And here they are: side by side.

Wow! Big & Great Knitting ideas. I made my own crochet hook holder (looks like the one shown) but didn't think about large pockets for other items needed. Need to rethink and remake.....
