I love your quilt. This is one quilt I have failed in trying to make. I remember a friend of mine in 6th grade had one grace her bed. Her Grandmother made it. From them on I was in love with quilting!

I used Wonder Under and just transfered the pieces to that, then cut them out. Yes, had to reverse them, but some didn't make it and I WAS NOT going to waste the fabric changing.
I just ironed the Wonder Under onto the fabric, turned the fabric over, traced the template onto the back and cut out each piece. Then ripped off the paper and ironed it on the square. Then just stitched around each one. I just went REALLY slow on the curves and it seems I have it down pretty good.
