    Love the fabric you used! I started sewing making clothes in the 5th grade. Curves? no problem!

    Once I learned how to do curves I love them. It really didn't take very long. Once again, you have to practice and not give up. I think curved piecing goes together very fast and a whole quilt top can be made in almost no time!

    Your quilt is great and happy!
    peace :-D

    Absolutely love your quilt. Good to know about the Accu Cutter. I've always wanted to try a Drunkards Path, but been afraid to attempt. All of your seams look perfect, guess I know what's going on my Christmas list this year. Thank you for sharing! Nice top quilting as well!

    I bought a foot made specifically for making curved seams. That's how I do it. Can't remember the name. I saw it demonstrated in a video that QNN showed when they first started. Learned a lot through those videos. Yes, they were selling their wares, but I learned a lot and made quilts I wouldn't have made otherwise.
