I like the fabric in the curtains. Are you required to use the curtains or is that just an example of her taste? One of the beautiful things about quilts is the blending of patterns and textures. I would not do curvy piecing. I would pick a pattern and incorporate the colors. If you use the blues, greens, and golds it would be calming, quiet quilt. Using the red spices things up. I could see a quilt with soft blues, small geometric green patterns, a little of the gold looking wonderful with those curtains. Sometimes when picking fabrics for a quilt I use a focus fabric and after the fabrics are all picked I don't actually use the focus fabric in the quilt. I suggest you use the curtains as a focus but not copy them.
