After sewing these together, I needed a break from them.
Now that I have the blocks sewn together, I've decided to do a piano key border. Wish I had thought to cut out pieces for this when I started but oh well.
This is going to be my quilt. A quilt for me to snuggle under when watching tv, reading (when I ever find the time) and for napping (once in a blue moon!)
I'm loving it.
What are you working on?

This is so beautiful! I find that I am drawn more and more to traditional blocks done in a modern way. Good for you for keeping it for yourself!

Love it! The top picture is so happy too. It is a shame you didn't cut the piano key strips during...oh the work! But it's going to look awesome! I'm working on my plus pillow. The front is finished, now for a back!
I LOVE your Dresdens, they are simply gorgeous!
Oh wow, if I were you I would keep it for ME too. It is fantastic.
So pretty, love your border idea, too! :)
Oh wow! It's so lovely. I do love Dresdens!
You quilt is lovely. I didn't include a Dresden Plate Quilt on my list today but it is there for sure. I think they look amazing. It's so cheery with all those bright colors. LOVE!
All kinds of gorgeous! A piano key border will be the cherry on top.
So pretty! How fun to work on something you know you will keep! What a bright, cheery quilt!
Love it. I have seen more and more polka dots as backgrounds and I think it looks so neat. Great job. I am going to have to make myself one of those too. :)
Yummy dresdens! This will be a lovely quilt.
It's looking gorgeous Jennifer! Love that it's for YOU!!
I love it!
Jennifer, love everything about it. Is there a specific pattern you followed that is available for the dresdens?

Love that first shot, Jennifer. And, I think a piano key border is a very pretty idea =)
Gorgeous - makes me want to start a Dresden plate quilt immediately!
Beautiful quilt! Dresden plate is one of my favorites, seeing yours makes me want to make one of my own.
