Top of the morning quilty friends! Hope you each had a wonderful weekend filled full of whatever makes you giggle. I didn't get to stick to my weekend plan of quilting on the frame. As soon as I touched my quilting machine ...she broke. Oh well what can you do but whine to Mr. Podunk, ask him to fix it and move on. This was the perfect opportunity to work on a UFO. There's plenty to choose from in various stages of completion. But the one below caught my eye.
A cute little stack of 50 or more mini dresdens.
If you've been hanging around my blog for awhile you probably remember my Daisy quilt. Not sure why this one became a UFO because I LOVE IT. It might have been the applique. Due to the little dresdens being randomly placed on the quilt top over seams it's a little bit of a pain to machine stitch them to the quilt. It was a even trickier to glue baste them in place as the quilt hung on the wall.
All basted and ready to stitch.
Awe now look at that, so springy and cute. Why did I ever stop working on this?

I love this quilt! I believe it was why I started following your blog. Glad to see it's out of the UFO box.
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute! It certainly deserves a finish with Spring around the corner.
ReplyDeleteThis quilt is so fun! Fantastic design. You are so creative!
ReplyDeleteWOW! This quilt is beautiful...just screams SPRING!!

ReplyDeleteThe little dresdens are so cute. Can't wait to see it finished. Just in time for spring.
ReplyDeleteIt will be a finish in no time! I always love your quilts and this one is no exception. Those mini Dresden flowers are just adorable. Have fun finishing this one....I hope Mr. Podunk gets your quilting machine fixed fast!! Thanks for sharing on MCM. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a bum deal about the machine. I hope it gets restored to good health. Those mini Dresdens are adorable, and the top is even more so. I can understand why appliquéing them would be a beast, but it's going to be worth it.
ReplyDeleteThis seriously looks like a lot of work. It is very pretty indeed.
ReplyDeleteLove this!! I guess the machine "knew" your attention was needed elsewhere!!
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty and makes me wish spring was here right now!
ReplyDeleteLoved it.

ReplyDeleteYour daisies are wonderful, so bright and summery spring like.
ReplyDeleteI've taken on the 365/366 circle challenge but now I see dresdens calling my name...but I think I'd best ignore them and admire yours!
THAT is the most WONDERFUL top I have seen in a LONG time ! Stunning !
ReplyDeleteWhy indeed? That is a really cute quilt top, and so springy!
ReplyDeleteThat is a stunning quilt in the making. Who know why we put one project down and work on something else. Do we just forget or what.

ReplyDeleteWhy did you stop? (I do the same thing...we stop because life interrupts us...) It's so adorable!!! Can't wait to see the finished product!!
ReplyDeleteOh how lovely! It's gorgeous! :)
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love this quilt! I think I might have overdosed on Dresden plates as a child or something because they don't speak to me very often. But this is so fresh and is the shot of Spring that is needed about now. Thanks for sharing it with us.
ReplyDeleteOh, I love the daisies quilt. What a creative use of the Dresden design. Such a bright and cheerful quilt :)
