Such a beautiful, cheerful, and happy summer quilt that has been completely hand-made and hand-stitched! A 12-patch Dresden Plate piece made entirely of vintage feed sacks and cotton fabrics. The backdrop fabrics are polished cotton in snowy white, lemon yellow and light lime green. A colorful, floral, and geometrical variety of pastel and primary colors in the plate fabrics. This was a found farmhouse beauty in rural Ohio and had been tucked in a closet. It had appeared to have never been used as the yellow, white, and green fabrics were still in their "new" (shiny polished cotton) state, an some of the feed sacks were still crisp. There were some VERY pale yellow hues on the back side, a few black flecks in the fabric, and a small brown-pea-size spot, that has lightened up considerably - this can be seen in photo #2, if enlarged, below the center yellow fabric and headed right toward the corner where the green square starts. These do not detract - this is a beautiful vintage piece! Completely hand-made, and hand-quilted, and the quilter appears to have been an experienced one as evidenced by the diminutive, carefully placed, stitches. Wonderful floral pattern that can be more clearly seen on the plain fabric of the back side. This beauty measures 65 x 83 inches, and is shown on a full-size bed. Thank you so much for looking and let me know if you have any questions! Smoke-free, furry-friendly home.

Nice small sized Dresden plate piece. It’s hand & machine done. Measures about 11 1/2 x 22. Would make a great table mat or a beautiful set of pillows. Great craft project piece. It’s tattered, missing fabric & stained. Not sure of the age. Please remember with cutter quilt pieces they are mainly for crafting. They have character and do have fabric wear, tattered places, and have been well used and are vintage/antique. They may not be cut in straight lines.

Spruce up you fall and winter wardrobe with this lovely jean jacket, dawning a colorful 1930s patchwork antique quilt patch on its back. The quilt patch is a "Dresden plate" upcycled from a damaged antique Dresden plate quilt. I sewed it onto an unworn J-Jill denim jacket. The patch adds a unique, cute, and colorful touch to an already lovely piece of fall and winter attire. The jacket is a size M and has never been worn.

For your consideration we have a really beautiful vintage Dresden plate quilt that was hand quilted and machine pieced. It is in excellent vintage condition with no rips or worn spots, but there does seem to be some places where the thread in the plate ran. Please inspect the pictures carefully, as they are an important part of the description. The quilt measures approximately 87 x 74 inches, with a lightweight batting weight. Unfortunately, I don’t have the skill required to dates this one, but another quilt from this estate was made in the 1950’s. This quilt has it all - generous size, wonderful fabrics and a classic, beloved pattern. If you have any questions or would like additional pictures, please don’t hesitate to reach out. As always, thanks for stopping by! For more quilts and other vintage finds, please visit my shop at https://oldfarmdogvintage.etsy.com

Chapter 2 - A Dresden Quilt Along - Southern Charm Quilts - A Dresden Quilt Along - Let's make a dresden plate block
This is such a delightful quilt top, all soft with beautiful colors. It's a Dresden Plate, with many beautiful pastels from the 1940's and is in wonderful condition, just begging to be quilted. Vintage hand-made quilt top in the colors of feedsacks and dress fabrics in peach, blues, yellow, with multicolored accents. The Dresden Plates are good-sized, see photo and the whole top measures 70X70". It is in very good condition, I could not find any holes or wear, no spots or stains, see photos. The background is solid off-white sheeting fabric. The applique is nicely done with small stitches, its all hand done, and machine joining the blocks. Overall its CLEAN, and ready to quilt... or just look at it, its Lovely! From a clean and smoke-free home. And if you want this one hand quilted, please contact me, prices vary. I love selling quilts and tops, and I enjoy good relationships with my customers, you are always free to ask me any quilt questions and I will do my best to assist. Please do remember that these quilts and tops are old, and are made by a person, as such they will possibly have a thread loose or a spot I may have missed. I try to always represent the piece as honestly as possible. Please ask questions about this one, it's a beauty and I don't offer returns. Please view my other listings for more quilt items and be sure to visit my UPDATED website at www.threadworks.org and also see my sister shop at ourcommonthreads for those of you who might need orphan blocks for spacers, small projects or great fabrics!
I got carried away when taking photos so I decide to make this a "photo" tutorial! These Dresden Plates are time consuming but oh so worth it! They will become addictive! Happy Quilting! Meg
