Dazzling New York Beauty

Post by purrfect-lady » Fri May 02, 2025 7:45 am

I finally finished it this morning! It measures about 99“ x 109“. The pattern is by Cinzia White from Australia. She made this design for her son’s wedding quilt. My sweet husband gave me the book as a Christmas gift and challenged me to make it. My sister asked me what I was going to name the Quilt and I responded, “I hate Bill”. Lol! It took me 70 days and over 300 hours. I didn’t count them but another person on White’s website says there are more than 3000 pieces in this quilt.

Mary

There are no words to adequately express how beautiful that quilt is!!!
It's truly a work of art! You have to be so proud of yourself to have accomplished that !
And I think the name for it is quite appropriate!!

Mary, it was worth the effort. It is fabulous. I didn't realize it was that big. Now I really want to make it.
