This week I have been working on a Christmas quilt for my eldest daughter Natalya.
A dear friend in America sent me some gorgeous batiks ( love batiks!!!)
I decided to set the plates on a black background to accentuate the colours.
Thank goodness for my Dresden Plate ruler. it takes a lot of hard work out of it.
MMMM - to sash or not to sash ????
This is as far as I have got at the moment. I will be starting on the borders later on today and I cannot wait to quilt it as I got the most gorgeous rainbow coloured thread at the quilt show.
I'm linking this post to

Til the next time .....

Rhianon, I love the colours you chose for your Dresden plates. The rainbow thread is going to look gorgeous with them. Beautiful!
