I read back through the posts and this is a curved log cabin. She doesn't say what size the blocks are but you should be able to make it whatever you want, however the size of the floral may dictate what size you need. Jenny's tutorials may be a big help, that being said it might be a challenging block without having prior experience. If you do decide to try it, start small with just a single or a few blocks before cutting all of your fabric.Another option is the Creative Grids Curvy Log Cabin ruler, but check it out on YouTube before spending your money. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FEJrvyaniJk
Also, here's a link to an ongoing post for another new quilter and there are a lot of very good suggestions. My First Quilt - Fabric, Patterns, and Tools!
Again, welcome and we all look forward to seeing your progress!

Talk about inspiration! Your quilt is one of the most beautiful log cabin quilts I have ever seen-it is so unique. For the past few days I have been going through all sorts of mental gymnastics about a quilt to start for a guild show-maybe, you have given me the idea I need. Your quilt is wonderful-I will be anxious to see it completed.
