My Dresden Plate quilt top is now complete except for 2 triangles! Guess who ran out of fabric! AKKKKKKK



Do you know what it is called? Do you have 1/2 yard lf it?? I can't even look it up online to see if I can order some from somewhere, but I don't know the name of it.



Anyway, it is a cream with a slight beigh pattern or swirl in it. I took a picture, but it doesn't show up very well. Actually, I took 10 pictures and this was the best.



If you have any idea, please let me know, ok?????

I don't know the fabric, but I have another suggestion. Would you have enough fabric if you left off the corner triangles? Something like was done with the Quilt in a Day Lover's Knot quilt

Boca Jan, if you hold the camera directly over the print ... so the surface of the print is parallel to the camera lens, you;d get a better shot and we'd be able to make more detail out of it.

I'm more'n happy to do the legwork and help find it, but I'd need to see more detail first!

Hugs!! & Good luck!! Connie :)

PS - Were you looking for a pattern about a week ago? Please e-mail me privately - I lost your e-mail addy! Grrr!

If all else fails I will try to redesign the corners.

Very close in the color category, but the pattern is not the same. I'm going to try more pictures.

If you find you need to redesign the corners... maybe you can do 1/4 dresden plate blocks -- matching your main blocks? Do you have enough of those fabrics remaining?

Just a thought!

Is this close???

THIS IS NOT A LINK TO SOMETHING ICKY... just a fabric swatch!

To me, it looks more like twigs or branches ... maybe skeletal looking ferns??

But then, my eyes just ain't what they used to be! : /

Hugs!! Connie :)

What good eyes! It is a white embossed tree or twigs with the darker leaves in beigh or sand on the ivory background. Very pretty.

Hon, flattery will get you EVERYWHERE!! :)

Anywho, I'll keep looking .. and please let me know if you're still looking for that F&P pattern (I think it was you??)!!

Quilty hugs!! Connie :)

Sorry, Jan, I checked my stash and my scraps but I don't have it. Good luck!!!

Boca Jan, How about this:

Like Sunny, I think this is Fusions by Robert Kaufman. A LQS not far from me carries it in a ton of colors, but I'm sure you can find it on line as well. It's my favorite blender fabric. If you can't find your color on line, let me know & I'll put you in touch with the LQS near me. This was a pretty easy challenge!
