Idea! Have you tried PP'ing the curves individually and then sewing them together?
How do you paper piece a curve? I haven't got that to ever work for me. The zig-zags are all straight line, so I can do those PP'ed.
When I printed out my pattern onto paper I printed out as many as I could get on the sheet. Then I cut them out individually. I just layed my fabric on the paper and sewed on the line. When all was said and done TA-DAH!!! Just make sure though that you have enough fabric to compensate for the seam allowance and don't try to skimp on the piece of material that you sew onto the paper. I tried getting like right on with the material (frugal/cheap) and just ended up screwing myself up. A little bigger is better and then trim down and sew on the next.
Make sense? :? If I've confused you, PM me.
