You could print out the pieces, cut them out, and play with how you think it might go together.
quiltilicious' directions are the ones I would follow |
Looks to me like it's the design in the fabric and not little pieces of fabric braided. It's twin fabrics, with one having the design a little bit bigger than the other and a border on it. :-D

Looks complicated, I agree with trying a print out and maybe cut up some scrap then see if it makes sense to start in center and add around. will keep checking post as Im curious.

Since I am a visual person, I started playing around with the pieces and pattern. I like PP better, so I enlarged the little corner piece by 400%. That gave me a finished block at 6 3/8" adding your 1/4" seam would make it 6 7/8" I believe.
It takes four blocks to make up the first picture. Be very careful about placement of the #'s 4 and 5 as they overlap. I'm going to go to the machine and play with this one. Looks intriguing. |
I wonder if this was meant to be hand pieced (or paper pieced as already stated). It is a very unusual block and I've been looking for a challenge. Thanks for sharing.

just checked out the site for you, it says at the bottom where you download your templates, that if you are having problems, to ask for a free pattern,
|
I think I will try one of these blocks. Ill post pictures as I go through the cutting and pieceing if you like.
Should I add them in this thread or start a new one? |
If you have a local quilting store I have found a lot of help from the ladies that work at them. They are usually very friendly and willing to help plus have years of experience too.

It is by number, like a paint by number. up in the left hand corner of the download she has 1/4 of it numbered. Plus I would also go by the color picture.
