I saw some quilts made from different variations of the New York Beauty block (for a sew-along) on Pinterest and since it's been a while since I did any paper piecing (except for English!) I thought I'd give it a go. It seemed perfect for using some Kaffe Fassett pre-cuts, along with some other fabric in my stash. I've never sewn a round shape except for bottoms on wine totes etc, never anything that's supposed to open up and lay flat. It gave me some grief but here's my first go:
This is the beginner's block, so it's supposedly quite simple. Needless to say it wasn't that simple to me haha. I'd appreciate any feedback, especially about how to make the rounded part easier. I'm afraid to clip it too much, I worry it might break?
Thanks![]()
