    That's a pattern I wasn't familiar with, had to look it up. Love it. Very different from anything I've seen before. Be sure to post a pic when it's finished.

    Don't let those curves intimidate you. They are gentle curves that you can pin and do pretty easily. Just go for it

    I have to say, this is much easier than it looks! I am moving right along after the first couple of tries. The directions sound strange, but if you just take her tips to heart and do it her way, it's not hard at all and no pinning is needed.

    This is also my first time to have and use an actual pattern that I didn't create myself, LOL, so I am experiencing lots of firsts here!!
    Sewing a piece on each side is sure a lot of curves tho, and the neck and fibro does a good bit of complaining about the repeating motions so it is taking longer than it would otherwise.

    I like it, I think your DD will be very happy with her curved quilt.

    Ooh, I am excited about this quilt. Please post your progress. I am also nervous about curves and am hoping to start one soon.
