What you can do is print out a picture of your quilt and use a overlay sheet of plastic to doodle in the designs. Then if you don't like that just take a new sheet and try again. I think once you begin doing this, it will become apparent to you which design you like best. You sometimes have to think of it as a whole cloth with designs on it ignoring the smaller seams.
It really is lovely! If you use a fine tipped dry erase marker on the plastic you can wipe it off if you don't like your doodled design.

I hope you will do a tutorial on those curves!
Thank you. If everyone is interested I could certainly do a "tutorial" for the curves - I've never done one before, but I would happily give it a try.
