Description:
Claudia says, that her "Mediterranean Beauty" was inspired by the Traditional New York Beauty. She designed this "off-kilter New York Beauty" as a raffle quilt for the QTQ2002 quilt show, sponsored by APQS and held in Duluth, Minnesota. This is the first in a long line of collaborations between my good friend Marilyn Badger, longarm quilter extraordinaire, and me. In paper-piecing it, I used hand-dyed fabrics from Primrose Gradations - every tone of blue, green, turquoise, gold, and orange that they had! It was exquisitely quilted by Marilyn and is owned by Georgia Manthei of Michigan.
