Welcome to the much-anticipated Dresden Plate Blog Hop! Over the next four weeks, 26 talented Island Batik Ambassadors will come together to showcase their creative takes on the iconic Dresden Plate block. This classic design, admired for its beautiful radial pattern of petal-like wedges, offers endless possibilities for artistic expression. Each quilter will experiment with this timeless block, using the new Island Batik collections to create stunning lap-sized or larger quilts.
We can’t wait to be inspired by the unique interpretations, clever techniques, and incredible quilting on display. So, grab your favorite sewing supplies and join us as we celebrate the boundless beauty of the Dresden Plate!
Throughout the next four weeks of the Blog Hop, we’ll be unveiling stunning quilts that showcase the fabrics from our latest collections, hitting the shelves this month. Don’t forget to express your anticipation to your favorite quilt shop! Find out which stores carry Island Batik near you by using our Store Locator; just enter your zip code, and your local shop will pop up on the map – it’s incredibly convenient and helpful!
Every Friday, we’ll compile round-ups of the projects and host a giveaway of two Fat Quarter bundles from the new Island Batik collections highlighted during that week!
