Denise New York Beauty in Yellow, Purple and Green - This was paper pieced. This began with purple and yellow only; but then I decided it needed a third color, so along came the green! The colors were my choices and not ones suggested by the book. This was and will be the only paper-pieced quilt I will do! (I love applique....). This was fun and I'm happy with the result, but I prefer other methods. I hung this quilt in my daughter's old room and actually redecorated the room around it! The whole room is purple, green and yellow. Light lavender rug, yellow bedspread, one accent light purple wall, etc.
