Grand Central Terminal Centennial Quilt Challenge

organized by American Patchwork & Quilting Magazine & The City Quilter in association with the NY Transit Museum & the Metropolitan Transportation Authority

This quilt-making challenge celebrates one of the most beautiful & important buildings in the world upon the occasion of its 100th Anniversary this year.  

Naturally, we felt this called for fabrics to help celebrate!   Consequently, we developed two designs, "Grand Central" and a complement, "GCT Constellations," both in two colorways, ivory and aqua.
