The New York Beauty block-a clean, precise, starburst pattern-has been a classic quilt design for years. The sharp points and curved seams have intimidated quilters from the beginning. Linda Hahn has developed a simple paper-piecing foundation method to sew a gentle arc that guarantees a perfect New York Beauty block every time. 21 projects, from small to large wallhangings and applications on sweatshirts and a tote bag showcase the numerous design possibilities Linda is famous for teaching. Quilting patterns for each project are included, an added bonus for this intriguing block.
