Dresden Plate Applique

Another unfinished project ...

I had the opportunity to meet Kim Diehl in person and take a class from her (well like 6 months ago), wow how time flies.  I have this pile of partially sewn blocks and need to get busy with the applique portion.  I might be a little out of practice since finishing my mom's wall hanging at Christmas -- another one of Kim Diehl's patterns.  If you don't know who she is google her name.  She is a very talented lady who lives in Pocatello, Idaho, designs her own patterns and lines of fabric and is amazing.  I love civil war fabrics and these blocks have lots of them, I need to set a goal to finish this one .... maybe by October?? (that would make it about a year).  There are lots of vines and small berries left to do.  I have one sewn to the background and it even has the center on it (upper left hand corner) ... I think I need some encouragement.



Any ideas????  I probably shouldn't tell the whole world (my mother knows), but I have two other quilts that are partially done that are Kim's designs as well.  Do they have hospitals for people like me?
