Description:
Hattie’s Dresden is the definition of Lee's "modernitional" aesthetic, combining both modern and traditional elements into one quilt. This is part of Lee's "Dresden Period", and started with the idea of how far she could stretch a Dresden design. Lee likes to joke that it is her most popular pattern purchased, but not the most popular pattern of hers made. The quilt is named in honor of Lee's great-grandmother May Chappell's sister, Hattie.
