Reimagined Dresdens

Fall in Love With Dresdens

The Dresden quilt block is a classic pattern that makes quite a statement when featured in a quilt! These “blocks” are made up of wedges sewn into a circle and are astonishingly easy to sew. Author and instructor Candyce Grisham shares her expertise and passion for creating these circular pieces and how to use them in your quilting and sewing projects!

In this class, you will learn to make these timeless plates using a template, but Candyce will also show you a glimpse at the endless variations possible as she helps you unleash your creativity! Candyce guides you on how to pick out fabric, cut the wedges, create the circles, finish edges in 5 different ways and make pieced units within the wedges. You will never look at a Dresden Plate the same again! The blocks are machine pieced and the appliqué of the blocks can be done by machine or hand. You don’t have to be an experienced quilter to make Dresdens, even an adventurous beginner will have fun and be successful!
