I'm glad that you like it! And I'm excited that I now feel confident piecing New York Beauty blocks. (Terrie's mug rug was also a New York Beauty, but I think she hasn't had a chance to post it yet.) I've had one of those quilts in my future for quite a while now, and now that I can piece the blocks it's getting a little closer.

I wanted to let Mary know that she inspired me to do some hand embroidery and was surprized she wanted to share it. Thank you.Originally posted by PosyPComment

Thank you ladies. OK--I made this just like I made all my other mug rugs. Actually, this was the practice for the one I did for Limbania. I used Kona Jet black cotton, Pel-Tex instead of batting(a little hard to work through--my little fingers got a work out), same fabric on the back. After all was put together, I machine quilted it. The binding is a rayon ribbon that I liked and didn't know what I would use it for. It worked really well with the colors I had used. The thread was #8 pearl cotton. Quilting thread was Superior's Bottom Line in black.
Wendy--Margo told us that if we turn our heads to the side, it helps to see the quilting correctly. Try it--it works.
Great muggies Terrie and Nancy.Comment

It did, I looked sideways and squinted. Thanks for the tip

Maybe if you close one eye and stand on your head? Oh, wait--that only works for Kathy. :lol:
Let me explain before you ask--Kathy tells me to stand on my head--anytime I say anything is wrong. :P

ops: Too much multi-tasking.

No worries! I know you've been busy. I'm just excited that I've been able to make 2 pretty good New York Beauty blocks. I've always loved them but have been a bit afraid to make them.Comment

Rosemary--did you receive the mug rug I send to you? It has been quite a while since I sent it. Hope it isn't trying to swim to England.

Ritzy,
Your embroidery piece is absolutely stunning. I've worked with that stabilizer material on my machine and it was a bear then so I can't imagine working with it by hand with all those spectacular stitches!!

Thanks Jane.Comment

Beautiful New York Beauty! When I first saw it, I thought it was one square of fabric with a binding on it. The seams and the stitching are incredible! Thanks, Nancy (Rehak)Comment
