    Default NYB Corners Finished
    A while ago I asked for advice on how to sew a NYB block: http://www.quiltingboard.com/main-f1...k-t254003.html

    I'm hand-piecing and I decided to use fusible interfacing as foundation for the arc of triangles (as I had that on hand and didn't want to wait to get muslin first).

    I've just finished the fourth and last corner tonight and the quilt top now measures 61' square. That is wide enough to fit my spare bed, however, I am thinking of adding some pieced border (maybe with four patches from the same fabrics as the central unit - if I still have enough fabric...?) to change the shape of the quilt from square to rectangular (and make it long enough for a bed).

    That is a wonderful, cheerful quilt. I love the center and the corners. Thanks for sharing.

    Always a challenge to get a rectangle from a square.

    I love your design. The center calms the feeling of the quilt with all the points. Your color is excellent too. Great job.
