I downloaded the templates. Do you think a person could paper piece this block?

I don't think you could paper piece this block with the curves. If you figure out how....could I please have a copy of the pattern? ;-)

Not the same quilt BUT the secondary pattern to this block is pretty cool. Another reason I wish "designers" would show the whole quilt, not just blocks!

It is a really unusual block, which was extremely well pieced and the finished quilt should be gorgeous. I did notice that one of the blue pieces was pieced, but that is typical when fabric was scarce and hard to come by. I wish I could help you. Have you tried quilterscache.com, there may be something on that site that would be helpful.

Thank all of you for your complimentary remarks.

I have to admit, though, that it's not so much retained knowledge on my part, but sometimes the ability to know where to find that knowledge. This particular information came straight from Barbara Brackman's Encyclopedia of Pieced Patterns; that book has saved me more times than I can count!!
