The Dresden plate quilt pattern is rich with history... named after the town of Dresden, Germany, which became famous for its ornate porcelain plates decorated with flowers, fruits, and foliage during the Victorian era. The quilt block's shape is based on the mark that Dresden artists used on the back of their plates to identify their work.

The Dresden plate quilt pattern is also known by other names, including Grandmother's Sunburst, Friendship Ring, Aster, Dahlia, and Sunflower.
