I'm lagging behind in the 52 Scrap Challenge that Anorina is hosting....
Recently she made a lovely cushion from a Dresden plate...
I cut two blades from each of my blocks ....
it was fun sewing chains of blades....
and getting them to hold hands and make a circle...
... and spread out their arms to make a star....
and cut off little bits and make sweet little mini scraps....
... and then sew them together to make a flower....
... seeing spring is just around the corner...
... did you notice the size of the dresden blades.... ?
two blades in a 2 1/2" square... too cute....
... Righto, Gotto Go... those little flowers need some more tender loving care ...

I love Dresden Plates. Spring... yep we have flowers and blossoms coming out all over the place.
Gotta LoVe the Dresden! Good luck for 52 weeks of challenges! :)
So lovely, Fiona. I am still behind - 2 projects now. But I did the first 3 in one day, so as soon as I get a bit of free time I will have to get moving, and get them done in a day.
wow Fiona so cute but looks fiddley,lol,have fun with your flowers.xx
You make it look so easy. Lovely result.
Your little dresden is lovely. And it is great to see the wisteria coming out - so pretty.
Love your Dresden bloom. So cute. Hugs, xx.
How very cute!
Oh my...that's tiny!
But very sweet ready for spring :)
Too cute! You are very brave to make them so tiny.
they look so cute all holding hands...
very pretty flower, and so petite too.
I like your idea of putting a hexie in the centre of the Dresden Plate, instead of a circle.....it's different! I have also seen larger plates with pretty doileys used for the centres.
Your dresden plate is beautiful, I love the stalk and leaves you have added. Hugs Wendy
Oh, I love your little flowers, can't wait to see the whole garden
