Three Generation Destashification Quilt

    Three Generation Destashification Quilt
    on: August 04, 2011, 10:17:50 PM


    This New York Beauty Quilt is extra special to me as it includes fabrics from my Grandmother.  They were scraps from dresses she had made my mother and aunts.

    I also used scraps from my Stash - some from the 80's.  

    The paper pieced pattern uses scraps down to 1/2" triangles, so even the smallest scraps could be used,

      Awesome!  I am working on a NY Beauty quilt right now and you are inspiring me to get back to it.  Your quilt is beautiful and I love that you used scraps from your grandmother.

            Thanks for the generous comments.

            I used the patterns in the Karen K. Stone Quilts book - these allow for a great deal of individualized options and modifications.

            Great fun!
