I get the antique-quilts-on-ebay bug from time to time and managed to find a couple of nice pieces for around $30 (see here: http://cheaperthantherapyquilting.blogspot.com/2010/09/our-time.html) -- but I'm by no means a collector!! I'll leave that to you (and pray for you to have a windfall so the funds will hold out past Christmas! LOL) and collect vicariously! :-D<br />Blessings,<br />Mary LouMary Lou Casadahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01918932281509702766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-373996407183148608.post-54734146192309433922010-10-09T16:19:47.434-07:002010-10-09T16:19:47.434-07:00Calling this quilt a "beauty" falls shor...Calling this quilt a "beauty" falls short somehow. . . it is a New York Fantastic!Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14423024947233260195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-373996407183148608.post-81862184316881523432010-10-09T15:22:20.032-07:002010-10-09T15:22:20.032-07:00Glad you enjoyed!

Cutting them off at the tips may have been a way to get the quilt done with less fuss. The way this pattern changed over time suggests quilt makers were always looking for easier ways. This quilt was made toward the beginning of the pattern's evolution. Today, a New York Beauty is a completely different animal!Bill Volckeninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02212965199140126299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-373996407183148608.post-6138119694130848412010-10-09T06:01:13.288-07:002010-10-09T06:01:13.288-07:00That looks like a fantastic quilt Bill!
