I love dresden plates. Miniature dresden plates? Even better. I think these measure about 6 ½” across. Last year I made these Christmas pillows using dresden plates that I meant to make more of this year. Guess it will have to wait seeing as how Christmas is 3 days away!!!

Will be making my first Dresden's next week. I love circles, so I'm hoping I like it.

Those dresdens are so cute. Love the minis. I'll have to try those sometime. Your colors are great too. And, everytime I make dresdens I love the little string of wedges (like what you have in the first photo.) It's like a little "banner". Fun photo.

I have recently learned to do Dresden Plate and love the technique. I tried a few different ways and can confidently recommend using the Easy Dresden Plate ruler by EZ Quilting. I like the fact you can make any size you like with the one ruler.
Wendy
I LOVE your dresdans (was that too personal)...
I was wonderig which ruler you are using?
Your fabric choices are beautiful and the top stiticky on each dresday just frames them so perfectly.

Wendy I'm just using a ruler I bought at Joann's...they have lots of them and they all are about the same!
