    Years ago when Jenny created this ruler she was the one who did the videos but now someone else does. I bought it when it originally came out and I was one of those who was terrified of sewing curves I made the table runner first and was surprised that it wasn't as bad as I thought. Right after I made a small wall hanging, I just pulled it out recently thinking about using it again.

    I haven’t tried those. I have done improv curves and really like the freedom and interest.

    I made one of the quilts in the "Urban" series and it was a Lot of curves. As I mentioned above, I made it for my daughter and she loves it still. I think with patience and determination, anyone can overcome the fear of curves and be successful using their patterns and the ruler! [ATTACH=CONFIG]613688[/ATTACH]

    I really like this one. It is scrappy but with the background neutral and black stripe it ties it all together.

    After i was here, I saw their pattern Posh Penelope and that is so striking. It is something I want to set as a goal after I complete a few UFOs.

    Question Wonder Curve Ruler / QCR ?

    Hello
    Does anyone know if you can use the Wonder Curve Ruler to make the QCR patterns?

    I took a class a few years ago and bought a book and the ruler. Made one quilt which I like, but have only made a small table topper since. I guess I'm just not a specialty ruler person.

    I have the QCR. Made a couple of quilts and forgot about it. But I enjoyed the process and bought the longarm ruler which I use a lot. Looking at the 2 rulers side by side on Sew Kind of Wonderful's website, it looks like the Wonder Curve has a much steeper curve so it wouldn't work with the QCR patterns without a lot of geometry and redesigning.
