Wow, Rhueluna, that's really beautiful and so is the one in your avatar picture! I was thumbing through Quilt mags at the store today and there was another big quilt done with the ? New York ? blocks in colors like yours! Wish I'd taken more notice of which mag it was as my daughter has already decided this one is hers so I may want to do another! I'll find it next shopping trip!
Thank you. Glad you like it. Its called New York Beauty. There is a book out with several different varieties of this one. I see most people paper piece it, but I am not fond of paper piecing. I just cut the pieces out and hand piece them. Hand piecing seems to be easier for me to sew smaller pieces together. And Its relaxing to sit and do that.
