Design Wall Monday - new quilt tops

I have accomplished things lately, but haven't posted for awhile.  I am posting pics of two quilt tops finished recently.  One had been on my design wall for quite some time and finally I just started sewing the leftover pieces from the two black/brown/gray quilts tops I made this year.  I added a touch of blue for a spark and I really like that.


This one is the second dresden plate quilt from the same set of blocks I made this year.  I hand appliqued the dresden's in place.  I think I like the 30's without green and I hadn't realized that before.







I went to The Washington State Guild quilt show this past weekend.  I saw lots of great quilts and was totally enamored with Fire Island Hosta by Judy Niemeyer.  I had seen pics of the quilts before but seeing one in person...  I bought the pattern and I'm dreaming of fabrics.

The pop of blue just makes your quilt made from the scraps. Your dresden plate is beautiful!

Way to use up your leftovers. I need to make another Dresden Plate quilt some time. The added corners make it fun!

Great tops Julie! I love the blue pop of color. I need to get my Dresden Plate out and finish it. Love that Judy N quilt!
