Sprucing Up – Boho inspired Dresden pillow (sewing finishes)

I know, I know, you are thinking that I buy way too much low volume.  And when I tell you that I am almost out of it, you are probably rolling your eyes.  But then I’d remind you that I use it in almost every single quilt, so…… stop judging me!  JK!  Seriously, though my…

A few photos from Chapter 5 💛 I finally got the Dr A few photos from Chapter 5 💛
I finally got the Dresden attached, and seeing it sitting on that quilted background made me ridiculously happy. All those little blades, all that straight line quilting, and now it actually looks like the quilt I’ve been seeing in my head.
I went with the traditional method on this one, top stitching around the edges and stitching in the ditch between the blades. It takes a little more stopping and starting, but I really love the definition it gives the Dresden.
And yes, I definitely spent some time just standing there looking at it before moving on 😅

In this chapter, we’re attaching the Dresden plate and exploring two different quilting options. You can choose a traditional approach with top stitching and stitch-in-the-ditch quilting, or a free motion method using flowing S-curves to secure the plate.
