But dont worry the steps are easy to follow.
Once you sew a few pieces together, it will be a breeze.
TheMissouri Starhas lots of patterns using the Dresden template, and they are all beautiful.
Its a great way to use up all those blades!
double-check you put this gorgeous pattern on your list.
You need 20 pieces for each dresden sunburst.
Fold the sewn part over to make a point and press it down.
Repeat with the others.
Step 3:
Make the sunburst.
Cut 20 pieces of triangles using the simple wedge ruler on your sunburst middle fabric.
Fold them in half.
Lay a next sewn dresden blade on top, right sides together, and pin them together.
Sew on the edge from the top.
Repeat for the other pieces, then sew them together until you form a circle.
Press all the wedges going in the same direction.
Step 5:
Cut your background square which is 2 bigger than your plate.
Fold it in fourths to find the center.
Place the finished circle in the middle and pin it in place.
Sew them together on the line and trim the edges.
Make a little cut in the center of one side and flip it right side out.
Peel it off and glue it on the center of your Dresden circle.
Do a blanket stitch around the circle and the edge of the dresden plate.
You need 4 pieces of this finished block.
Sew them together in a four-patch.
Add a 1 1/2 inner border, then a 6 outer border.
