Here's the first block of the Christmas Dishes table-top quilt I designed for the Village Dry Goods quilt shop in Brigham City, Utah. I had so much fun making the queen size Candy Dishes quilt from Riley Blake fabric that I was eager to make another using this Dresden plate variation technique. The fabrics are different from the ones planned for our Heritage Quilt Workshop Christmas Dishes class kits, which are a little more formal.

Pieced and appliquéd Dresden
Plate variation

This Dresden Plate variation
is another of those great quilts that looks much harder than it is to
make. It combines piecing and
appliqué. The class includes expert instruction, class fabric kit for one 16”
block, instructions for single block pillow, and our pattern for the 48” x 48”
table-top or baby quilt.
