That is brilliant. I have more than a few charm square packs and it will be nice to do something else with them besides squares and triangles.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the the charm pack Dresden tip!!
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot! This is very useful tip. I like charm packs.... Now I know, what should I do with them!

Oh, this runner is beautiful! I made a Dresden Plate quilt once. A hard one to do. I sewed around paper pieces.

It's hard to believe that runner only used two charm packs. Now that's good a use for them. Thanks for sharing the cutting method.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful runner and Brilliant tip! Thanks for sharing!!
ReplyDeleteGreat tutorial! It is beautiful
ReplyDeleteThat is absolutely amazing that you were able to make the plates and the quarter square triangle blocks out of two charm packs. WoW!!
ReplyDeleteDid you use one charm pack for the plates and one charm pack for the quarter square triangle blocks?
Amazing!! Thanks for sharing this with me and everyone else. I love it!!! The table runner your Mum made is very beautiful, too!!!
Can I link everyone from my blog to your blog. I'd like to share your tip. Thanks!
I'm working on a bigger quilt with these two blocks for a class I'm going to teach at a local retreat.
Hugs, Kim
This is genius! I especially love that there is very little waste.
ReplyDeleteI just came from Kim's. Thank you for the great tip, I am always looking for ways to use my charm packs!!
ReplyDeleteGenius! and beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOh how wonderful...and charming.:)
ReplyDeleteThat's a clever trick and the table runner looks fabulous! I love how bloggers share all these terrific ideas. Ann :)
ReplyDeleteVery very slick! Quite the trick. I'm glad Kim sent me over.
ReplyDeleteThat is a stunning table runner. tytyty for easy to read instructions.
ReplyDeleteHi There! I was given 2 charm packs as a christmas gift and would like to make this table runner. The only thing is that I can't get the fan templates anywhere where I live, so would like to make my own template. Can you tell me what the width of your fan templates are at the top and the bottom. Could probably work it out but thought I'd ask you first!
ReplyDeletes.m.a.r.t. i love dresden plates...i should probably make more of them.
ReplyDeleteI have some large leftover DP block might be a good way to use them.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, that is so beautiful ! Love it !

That's pure genius. I was watching YouTube video last week that only got two out of a charm. I'll need make note of this. I couldn't find that Dresden template at any local stores and had to order it online. Glad I know about this before that order arrives.
ReplyDeleteThis is great !
ReplyDeleteThank you for this great idea; I don't use often charm squares, I wish to have a pack right now and start cutting;I shared it with my readers and linked back to your blog.
ReplyDeleteThis is really neat. It works
ReplyDeleteThank you for this fabulous idea!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the wonderful help. And I love your table runner.
ReplyDeleteInstead of cutting that last piece across the bottom, I just cut where the top of the other two pieces were cut and that left the 2.5x5 inch strip scrap on the top to use in another scrappy project.
