Okay...that's it!...I am going to call our Blog Hop...an ONLINE QUILT SHOW! *giggle*..... When Madam Samm asked me if I wanted to help be a Cheerleader and Host a Blog Hop I was SEW very Humbled..
It is An Honor to be a Cheerleader to all these Wonderful Quilters!!!
She and I typed back and forth with some ideas, and we decided that we like to challenge ourselves with trying something New so the Dare to make a Dresden came to mind. To be honest they scared me... because they are circles.. *giggle*...boy was I just a big scaredy cat.. *wink*.
They are Super Fun to make and surprisingly Super Easy too! Once I got an EZ Dresden Rulers I got started on a couple projects to make into Pillows or Mini Quilts... I can't decide which just yet... *sigh*.
As I got excited about Cheerleading and our Turn out was Astonishing! I have been in contact with SEW many wonderful quilters...I ended up only having time to get two blocks finished...I have 2 more in the middle of making and can't wait to finish... but with out any more delay...

Here's my first Dresden EVER!! *giggle*
I love how it turned out.... *giggle*
This pretty little project is going to be a Mini quilt very soon!
And here's my Second Dresden Ever... *wink*
Couldn't resist a bit of Rainbow colors. Fun Fun Fun...
I have a few more cut out and ready to sew, but will have to wait to share those with you later. Have fun checking out all the other Blogs being showcased today... I can't wait to see all their wonderful projects!!
It has been a TRUE Honor to be a Cheerleader for this HOP! And I am Very Happy to have taken the Dare to Dresden......
This is a FUN MAP that will showcase where all of our Quilters are FROM...
Will be updated as they add their locations to the Map.. Check back often.You can use the Zoom feature on the left to move in and out of the map *wink*
PS. Sorry about weird ad in bottom right.. I couldn't get rid of it.. You can mouse click and hold to move map around too.. *wink*

Well, your first attempt doesn't appear to be done as a first time try... You aced it missy!

Your Dresdens are beautiful.
Sometimes we just have to 'bite the bullet' and give it a go!! lol Your dresdens turned out so cute and I love your color choices. BTW, the map is such a fun addition; great to see where everyone is from. Thanks for being a super cheerleader; without you and Madame Samm these marvelous hops would grind to a halt!
Fantastic job on your dresdens - love it!
Love dresdens of any kind-I only recently made my first and it won't be my last. It's such a great way to use lots of great fabric-how could anyone not love it? I also like your "Zee Map" it's interesting to visit bloggers all over the world without leaving you home. From CA, thanks for sharing.
Rosemary B here: Dear Christine, your blog hop is the best and much of that success if because of YOU!
I love your dresdens. They are marvelous. Love the colors. Boy I am learning so much on this hop!
Thank you for sharing your creativity and eager encouragement. Love the map too
Love your dresdens! My favorite is the first you showed. Love love love the colors. Do you need my address?? wink wink
The rainbow dresden sings to me!
Well done! The fabrics you used made these look so different from each other.
Christine, you rock. Plain and simple. Best cheerleader ever! The dresdens are too cool, I think I like the rainbow best - it just pops. Thank you again for being our awesome cheerleader!

Fantastic Dresden plates Christie! Especially the one with the Denyse Schmidt ;)
Beautiful Dresdens, Christine.And you did a great job for your first time. Thank you for sharing.
I LOVE your Dresdens -- what happy colors!
I think you're the blog that got me hooked on Dresdens in the first place! Thanks for the map- who knew quilters are everywhere!

Both are beautiful blocks and gorgeous Colors , thanks for sharing !
Those are your first!? Amazing! This hop is just so much fun. Thanks for all your hard work.
Love the green and blues...so fresh and clean looking!. The map was a great idea. It's interesting to see where everyone is from. Thanks for sharing!
Love your Dresden plates, especially the rainbow one!
How fun! I think one of the things I am loving about this Hop is how many of the participating bloggers had never made Dresdens before.
I love your rainbow dresden. And that map is so much fun. Oh the places we'll go!
Love your Dresden's !!!
Your Dresdens look great! I love both quilts but especially the blues and the greens. The spotted fabrics are just too gorgeous!
Your dresdens are sweet, sweet, sweet!
For your first Dresden I'd say they turned out beautiful and perfect. You've made this hop so fun...thanks!
Your Dresden's are so neat and perfect. I especially like the bright colors in the second one. I also want to add that your idea of the map was great. It is fun to see where all the other bloggers are from. Thank you for all your hard work and making this a great hop.
You made some very nice Dresden's. My favorite is the first one because I love the color combination.
You did an amazing job on your first two Dresden's! I really love the 2nd one with those colors you've chosen. So pretty.
Thank you for all the work you have done with the blog hop.
Great Dresdens and what fun to see where everyone is from.
Wonderful, colorful, fun! Thanks for sharing!
Dear Christine,
your dresdens are real beauties, thanks for sharing.
You are a great cheerleader, thank you so much!
Liebe Grüße
Bente
The map idea is awesome. It is so cool to see where everyone is. Thanks for doing that. And your very first Dresden is awesome! They are a lot of fun. Can't wait to your others. Thanks for all your hard work!
Love the color wheel. Thanks for sharing.
Love them...your colors are fun!
I love your first ever dresden, lovely and cool :) I can't work out how to add my location to the map...
You dared and you did it. Hurray. Great colours. Love the dots.
It has taken me a while to get caught up. So many wonderful projects. Amazing talent. You are a great cheerleader. Thanks for the map-great idea.
The Bright colors were great. Thanks for leading the hop. Wonderful!
Your Dresdens are beautiful! Thanks so much for your hard work organizing the hop!
Good morning Christine...luv both your Dresdens...I do believe I have some of those dots in my stash. Great job! Thanks for sharing your Dresdens. I appreciate all your hard work organizing the hop and for cheering us on...super job!! Happy stitching, Pauline
First, from the mother of a former cheerleader, you've got cheerleading down to an art! Second, your first Dresden does not look like a first attempt. Third, your attempts make me want to dare to Dresden. I have a book and a template, so I guess I need to get in gear. Our guild has ask us to make a table runner for next June (2014) for a dinner with our guest quilter. The runners will either be given away as door prizes or sold in our small quilt auction. Maybe a Dresden would make a nice table runner for that event. I love dots and am working one polka dot quilt and have a few more ideas in the works. However, I might be able to come up with enough "yardage" pieces to make blades for a runner. You think? Thank you for being an awesome (that's a great cheerleading term) cheerleader. And, thanks for participating in the hop by blogging by Daring to Dresden and inspiring me and others. Many thanks.
they look great, you'd never know they were your first ever dresdens
Love the turqouise and lime one! Nice job for your first dresden!
Well girlfriend, I think you did a most wonderful job indeed! Yippeee! Thanks so much for hosting this hop. I'm having such a wonderful time.
Hugs to you! :) :) :)
Beautiful! Love the rainbow it is so bright and cheery.
The bright colored Dresden is especially cute. Thanks for the work on the blog. Fun Indeed.
Look at those gorgeous dresdens! Wow... and to think they're your firsts... you best not stop as these as so lovely and would make a beautiful quilt (or two... ;o). lol
Thanks so much for your wonderful work behind the scenes... hosting and cheering us all on, Christine.
I'm playing catch up on the hop, alot of dresdens to see, hehe. First wanted to say Thanks for all your hard work! Seeing all the people that participated, I know you were busy! You did a super job on your dresdens! Both are beautiful. Thanks again for a great job and sharing.
