Description:

Artist Statement: "Being inspired by the trend of making circular quilts and loving flowers, I decided to make a giant Dresden. After completing the blades, I had no idea how to complete the center. I took a class from Robin Ruth and made the Mariner's Compass blocks using the same color scheme. These blocks were perfect for the center and corners."

I love traditional quilts with a twist and this quilt fits that bill! The Mainer's compass in the senter of the Dresden plate is a wonderful and creative idea. The applique flowers in the Dresden plate blades are beautiful. I like the bias...

I love traditional quilts with a twist and this quilt fits that bill! The Mainer's compass in the senter of the Dresden plate is a wonderful and creative idea. The applique flowers in the Dresden plate blades are beautiful. I like the bias strips topped with the yoyos between each blade. Everything about this quilt is lovely!
