New York Beauty

I rearranged my office and now stare at a blank wall where my cabinets used to be. I was going to look for a painting or picture to go there.  This morning, I thought about making a quilt to hang there.  Jennie at Sunflower Quilts has been making gorgeous New York Beauty blocks the last few days and inspired me to research this block more.  It has curved piecing, which would be new for me.  I love the movement and colors in the samples I've found.

You can see Jennie's blocks on the Chicago Modern Quilt pool and on her blog.

And some of my other inspiration quilts:
