Design Wall Monday

Okay, here is what I have on my design wall (err make that carpet)or had that is. One orphan block - well, actually I have 13, but I've come up with a design for the other 12 and are approximately 17" squarish, so that makes this an orphan. I've decided to make a coverlet(that's a quilt without batting) as a summer throw. This is going to be totally from my scraps. In keeping with that I've picked an old curtain of which you can see the back under the dresden plate block. I got that at a fabric swap as I really liked the print. So first order of business is to machine applique the block to the center of the backing. Yes, this will be a "quilt as I find to add".

  1. That will be very pretty.
    I have an old coverlet one of my gramma's sister's made using a very similiar block...long,long ago. My mom gave it to me to repair. I forgot about it until looking at your block!
