Dresden Quilt Workshop Challenge Quilt

I am so excited to show my Dresden Quilt Workshop Challenge Quilt!  I have been following along with Susan Marth's sew-along (on her blog, referring to her recent book) since the beginning.  Admittedly, I fell behind a few time - life got in the way - but, her simple steps made it easy to catch back up!  And now...finally...I have a finish!
As we worked on this quilt, block by block, I couldn't wait to see it come together.  I had a tough time, early on, deciding on color and fabric placement.  It seemed a difficult task using a fabric collection with so few colors in comparison to Susan's original sample quilt.  Using the coloring template and moving along one step at a time...I think it all came together quite nicely!
Quilted, bound and labeled, my Dresden Quilt Workshop Challenge Quilt has found it's home in the dining room hanging over an old antique sled.
