New York Beauty Quilt Along – Week 8 Block 4

This post is part of the New York Beauty Quilt Along. 
To see schedule and tutorials for all 10 blocks in the series, check here! 

Have you been keeping up with the New York Beauty Quilt Along? There have been *so* many blocks posted to the Flickr Group, it’s amazing!!
Today is the tutorial courtesy of Lee from Freshly Pieced. Lee has put together a really beautiful color palette for her blocks. You can find the tutorial that she wrote for Block 4, here!
If you’ve completed a few blocks, but don’t want to make a full quilt, Lee has a fun idea to use 3 blocks to make a table runner…isn’t hers a knock-out?

We’ll be finishing up with the last 2 blocks shortly! Thanks for following along! 🙂
