    I am a new quilter and i have done simple, and intermediate level quilts, but i don't have the guts to try sewing 2 curved pcs...I can't even figure out how to sew the curved pc in a fan pattern (i started one btw and it is somewhere in one of my stashes;)

    Worth to note that i am a visual person so i would really appreciate pics to show me how and what to do to overcome my fear. If anybody knows a source for this or a tutorial i would greatly appreciate that as i feel i am missing a lot):

    Thank you all
    Faten

    They had something on one of the Fon's and Porter's shows and one thing was to pin the heck out of it.

    Wish I could help. I am making the Amish Wagon wheel
    that fons and porter had on their show. I am still
    having trouble with the curves.I am hoping after making
    a few of the blocks it will get easier.And I am pinning
    the heck out of them.

    This is a free pattern from connectingthreads, and it has a tutorial on how to do the curved pieces. Maybe this will help!
