I finished the chain top, and as I looked over it, I decided that it needed something... it haunted me. It needed something. So, I went and picked up another Giddy charm pack and made an applique panel with my new favorite thing in the quilting world - Dresden plates. They were a shocking amount of work, but so worth it!! They turned out SO cute!!! I am thrilled to death with the end result:
I just love these Dresden Plates!!! They aren't perfect, but I still love them!!!
I went with pink on the back. I couldn't help myself. It makes me happy!
I cut out one of the rows of nine-patches for the applique panel (I didn't want the quilt to be too long), so I put it on the back. I love how it looks!
I just love this quilt!! But I am at a loss with what to do with it. It would look cute on the princess's bed, but she already has a quilt that I made her on it. I have a hard time keeping quilts without having a purpose for it... but I don't know if I can part with this one. So, do I keep it for no apparent reason? Do I put it up for sale, and cry if someone buys it? What would you do?
See, it would look cute on a little girls bed!!! Love those Dresdens all in a row!

If you sell it, that means you get to make another one! However, I feel your pain. I am accumulating quilts, too, and not sure what to do with all of them.
um birthday presant to your favorite sister (that would be me) it is darling i love it
I love the 9 patch applique on the back. It really makes the back into a quilt of it's own and not just a back.
I love it LInds, the colors are perfect!
Somebody would buy that because really, that is the cutest quilt ever. I love it.
You could keep it for the princess as a gift for when she's older or as an alternate quilt for her bed, swap it over every month or so. Or give to someone you know so you can visit it.
