One of the projects I was working on in September was my New York Beauty Quilt. It has been pieced for quite some time and was just waiting to be quilted. I was inspired one weekend and went to town. My friend thinks I should call my quilt "Not Me!" This came about because as I was describing my weekend to her; Housework - Not Me!; cooking - Not Me!; laundry - Not Me!; I just quilted and quilted. It was a lot of fun trying new techniques and glitter thread!!
I will be teaching this piecing technique at The Ottawa Valley Quilters Guild in November.
Here are the steps taken to make this quilt beautiful.
