Not much accomplished around here today. I’ve been working on hand stitching my New York Beauties. Above is another block.
And this is another one. (Sorry. I think I should have ironed this before I took the picture.) I love playing with my fabrics and sitting on the deck and stitching while I enjoy this beautiful weather.
Above is a look at four of them together. This is not necessarily how they will end up in the finished quilt. I just like to see how they look and watch the circle appear.
And here are the five blocks together. I don’t have a plan or a pattern, but I’m having fun! Hope you are having a great stitching day too.
DON’T FORGET:
- Happy Scrappers meets Saturday at the Attic Window Quilt Shop.
- AQS Quilt Week is the week of August 14-17 at DeVos Place Convention Center. The Attic Window will have a vendor booth, so be sure and stop by.
ON ANOTHER NOTE:
iPatch has a multiple part Cloud Nine Tutorial. Part 1 is

Until next time,

Stay Calm! Stay Kind! Stay Positive!

I really love your blocks! Your fabric choices are fabulous! I've only made one New York Beauty quilt. It was the result of a paper piecing class. I don't even have the quilt anymore. I displayed it in our Downtown Quilt Show last year and sold it as a result!
Your beauty, Caroll, is a beauty! I just love NYBs and your bright fabric choices are really fun. I always find that no plan is sometimes the very best plan!
I love your blocks!! These are on my someday list, but not any time soon! LOL
I love love your blocks! I have made NY Beauties before, but they weren't as pretty as your blocks. One thing that surprised me was that they were much easier than I had expected.
Those blocks are just beautiful but look so hard.
Love this New York Beauty!! Bright, fun, and spontaneous!! Love your link as well. Thank you for sharing.
Have a super great sewing and stitching day.
Those are really neat! You're hand piecing them? Wow!!! i love them!
Sorry I have been away a while. BUSY. Prepare to get lots of comments. I'm catching up! :-)
