Our March Pillow: Vintage Dresden
This post continues our monthly pillow series. For March I dug out some vintage scraps and made little Dresden fans to place in the opposite corners of our pillow. It’s funny to me how these vintage pieces look a bit modern…
Some straight line quilting and a bit of (hand) appliqué make for a lovely Spring pillow that is both traditional and modern! And don’t worry if you don’t have any vintage scraps. Use reproduction fabrics, use current fabrics or use whatever you have on hand to make these cute little fans.
Here is the vintage Dresden pillow pattern:

Have you seen my two latest patterns on Craftsy? By popular demand, I have finally posted the pattern for my NextGen Quilt. It is so easy to make this quilt! It looks very difficult with all those odd shapes but it is SIMPLE with no templates at all!
Irene made this NextGen with lots of green as background. Isn’t it spectacular?
NextGen adds just one step to the Magic 9-Patch pattern (above, which is also included in this pattern) to make this spectacular quilt.
Check out my NEXTGEN/Magic 9-Patch Pattern on Craftsy!
Recently TLC Guild member JoAnne shared her LOGS! quilt she made in my Yorba Linda class. Isn’t it wonderful in neutrals? JoAnne left off the applique and it isn’t even missed! And the LOGS! pattern is now available on my Craftsy site too!
My LOGS! pattern is sort of an encyclopedia of log cabin blocks…some old, some new, some I just made up!
And that optional appliqué? It looks like it’s on the border but actually it’s added at the block stage. Check out the LOGS! pattern to see what I mean!
