I want to try some thing hard so i,m looking for a Hollywood pattern
Hi every one I,m ready to start my 5th quilt and want to try something that looks harder .
I,d like to try a Hollywood block and try doing it with paper piecing.
Some thing totally new to me .
My problem is I can find a free pattern.
Any one know where there is one on the web ?
Thanks
Tom

Good for you Tom for building your skills, it is very rewarding.
We need a photo of the Hollywood block, from that we can most likely figure out what the traditional name is and from there find a free pattern. There isn't much new under the sun, just new designers renaming existing patterns and marketing them as something new.
New York Beauty is a gorgeous pattern, and you would be learning curves in assembling, great project.

It will help your searches if you use the correct name of the block which is New York Beauty.
Google it. Most New York Beauty (NYB) are paper pieced and there are some free ones. You will never find it if you type in New York Pattern. Use New York Beauty quilt pattern.

I have been paper piecing for about 2 weeks. I have watched many Youtube videos on it and the best advice I have for you is when paper piecing it seems backwards. As you add you next piece don't look back to where you have been, look forward. After that the light bulb went off and I have made 2 lovely star blocks so far. Good Luck Marie
