So I now have the pattern. It is all done via an applique method, no peicing, no curved seams but prepared applique using the freezer paper method as MTS said. I have started to prepare pieces for it but applique is not one of my favorite things to do so I think it will be a while before I make it. Though I will make it because I just love the finished quilt so much.
I've never seen it done in applique - sounds interesting. Like I said before, this one is pieced, but there is only 1 piece in the entire quilt. Since the curves are so gentle, it really isn't hard to piece and you have a chance to square things up after all the piecing.
