Floral NY Beauty
#12
Cindy, that's beautiful as are the blocks behind it. NYB is next on my "to do" list. Question: how do you quilt them? Is there a way to do it without breaking needles on all the layers of fabric in the narrow points? Please post a pic after it's quilted--I can't wait to see it.

In 1992 I took a class for NY Beauties and made one only. I signed up for the same Craftsy class you did and watched part of it, but wasn't ready to make the NY Beauties yet.
I LOVE your quilt! If I can do that after watching her class, I am going to watch her class right away. I've always had a fondness for them since 1992 when I made that first one. Thanks for sharing! It's a very beautiful quilt!!! Thanks for the kick in the pants, also!

The one in the back I've decided to name "Bursts of colors". As you can tell, it's a work in progress. It's also paper pieced. Got the idea from a fellow guild member, but of course, mines different! I used the papers from Judy Niemeyer's Desert Sky pattern & just copied them on my copy machine on Carol Doak's paper. (It's pretty cheap, 100 sheets for $10) I like the idea of the circles, but am going to do a 10-minute block in the intersection where it's wide open. I'm just going to use a charm square to do that & roll the edge cathedral window style. I'm also going to bring that idea out into the border to tie it all together. Might add some more element to that border as well, but not sure what yet. I have a tendency to design as I go. I get the initial idea & work it out from there to see what fits til I'm happy with the end result. Or rather it says "I'm done!"
