    While I was lookint for a picture of Storm at Sea, I ran across this web site. Maybe it will make it easier for you to tackle. It is truly unique. http://lindafranz.com/ Good luck and I will be looking forward to seeing your quilt when you finish it.

    I like yours, Coyotemagic. It is very clever, and does look like under a stormy sea.

    I think I saw somewhere??? a paper-pieced version of this quilt. You might try to find it, it would make it so much easier.

    Storm at Sea is easy to do if you paper piece. Large square in a square, small square in a square and diamond in a rectangle.

    The paper piece templates are here: http://www.generations-quilt-pattern...ilt-blocks.pdf

    It's on my list to make. I found this ruler that I think might make it easier. http://www.creativegridsusa.com/prod...m=CGRSAS&ref=c
    If you search the web, there are lots of sites with good information.

    They are beautiful especially in navy blue and white. I made one but it was while I worked at Hancock fabrics and went with the store, they closed in our area.
    You will feel an emence amount of acomplishment when completed.

    I making one for my sister. It is paper-pieced (not my usual forte!) but the paper is tissue paper (like dress patterns are printed on) so removal of all that paper is easy peasy. It just needs borders.
