12 vintage dresden plates

I am so excited! I got these lovelies in yesterdays mail. There is nothing like vintage quilt blocks, and especially dresden plates. The fabrics on these are simply gorgeous. I am such a sucker for 30's fabrics, and these dont disappoint. I will take a close up of some of them if anyone is interested in seeing more of the fabrics. Just let me know. The plates are about 12". I am thinking i may do a cream with red polka dot as the background and centers. What would you do if these beauties where yours? I think this will make a luscious wall hanging for my bedroom.
