I suppose I really should be showing the back of these blocks, as my fabric usage is primarily of the backing fabric this week. I cut the backing for all 15 blocks. These six are quilted. Additionally, I borrowed a friend’s light box and finished tracing off the snowmen for my red work quilt.
No new fabric came into the house. I did consider buying some Easter fabric to make a border for an Easter quilt, but since I didn’t have the quilt top with me I stuck with my original shopping list of green thread for the sashing on the back of the Dresden Plates. I also bought a package of needles since my DH was looking for a curved needle to repair his snow boots.

Very pretty blocks. You did a great job!
Love the Dresden Plate blocks. I’ve always wanted to do them, but haven’t gotten the guts to try it yet.
