Some of you may remember this quilt from a
post last March about our Quilt Show. This quilt was made several years ago for our guild challenge called Shades of Nature. We were given 3 paint chip colors and had to make a quilt. I call this Natural Beauty. It ended up being one of an 8 part series.
It looks really pretty hanging in my office and gives it a definite feel of fall.
This was my first major piece where I worked with batiks. And I'm sad to say, I became completely captivated. They are really wonderful to work with. During the time of making 8 of these, I also became completely addicted to NYB blocks. They still draw me in.
The colors in this are so vibrant. I really don't get tired of looking at it.
And tucked away in the upper right hand corner is..... my kitty :).
Hope you all are having a wonderful day. At least if I'm stuck in this office, I can just turn my head and be inspired by these beautiful colors.
Until next time, make something beautiful.

Such a beautiful quilt - the fabrics are lovely and your NYB blocks really shine!
Truly a beauty!!
And now you're a batik-freak! I love this quilt!
It's gorgeous.
I have yet to try a NYB quilt--not even a single block--yet. It's another on my overflowing bucket list.
Your quilt is indeed a beauty.
This is a gorgeous quilt and reflects well the autumn season.
That is gorgeous! How fun to see and enjoy that while in your office.
it's beautiful. I would not tire of looking at that either!
How wonderful to see that beauty every time you go to work. Another one I haven't tried but would love to one day.
it's very very beautiful.
