This is one of the blocks from the Hummel quilt.  The stitching is very intense -- like armor.  The design is made from Mettler threads, some shades very drab until the last dark brown outline is stitched.  This will be a 48 block quilt!

The Dresden plate is one of my favorite patterns.  This is one of the blocks from the Dresden plate pattern my sewing group is doing - each one of us using our own color schemes.  My fabrics are Modas from the Kansas Troubles collection.  One is using vibrant batiks, one pastels and one is using simply scrap fabric.  They are all beautiful but very different from one another.

This is Beth's graduation quilt. That would be my favorite grandson adding to the picture!
