Book Description

Put yourself in a New York Beauty state of mind as you make these beautiful paper-pieced blocks with perfect points and flawless curves every time! Learn to make the fabulous New York Beauty block using ONE pin and NO stress! Linda shows how to paper piece the arc foundation, creating sharp points on each spire. When it comes to sewing curves, break out a single pin and sew a seam that stays wonderfully flat. Follow the simple directions for cutting and you will have made a flawless New York Beauty block! Make 36 blocks and piece together a quilt. Save the scraps, though, because Linda gives tips for taking the leftover fabric and making a Chunky Mini quilt as well. She also demonstrates how to sew the blocks together to make a flowing wave, a half sun, and a full sun. Following Linda's instructions, you'll be able to make this seemingly complicated block like an expert, giving you so many possibilities for making not only these two quilts, but so many others as well. New York Beauty Simplified DVD is the perfect solution for taking the class without having a computer, it makes a wonderful gift, and it is great to have on hand as a hard copy-even if you have taken or plan to take the online class.
