Thank you, Melissa, for the kind words! That quilt that you mentioned is actually a bit of an optical illusion......there are no curves in it! I, too, looked at that pattern and loved it, but thought it was much too difficult. I looked at the pattern for over a year before I just bit the bullet and tried it. After just one block, I realized I over-analyzed it! Each quarter block is 4 triangles cut with a template....that's it! It looks much more intimidating that it should be. It is called Crossed Kayaks, and is in a book called A Treasury of Scrap Quilts by Nancy J. Martin. The end result, as you can see, is worth the effort. It's my favorite quilt so far!
