Ooh pretty.!! Look what I get to play with!

I just received 29 of these blocks from a client.  They've been passed down the family.  Her grandmother made them, probably in the '30's.  The plates are hand appliqued onto white backing fabric.  I have the challenge of using them to make 2 double sized quilts.  The plan is to applique them onto white background fabric, using half the squared on each quilt.  Stay tuned!!  You just know what I'll be dreaming about tonight :)
