        Miniature versions of the popular Dresden plate quilt block in both four-and-a-half and seven-inch sizes are the focus of quilt designer Marth's first collection. Scaled-down piecing calls for precision, and Marth includes plenty of tips for improving accuracy in cutting, pressing, and piecing. The 13 projects present Dresden plates in a variety of settings, using them both on their own and as part of larger blocks (such as the center of a churn dash) or layouts (a focal point for an Irish chain), and as full circles as well as half- and quarter-circles. The majority of the projects are miniquilts or wall hangings; there's also a lap-size quilt and a table runner. VERDICT Dresden plates are frequently seen in both modern and traditional quilting, and Marth's petite plates will inspire and challenge confident quilters.
