Then I decided to set the block on point and add the corners. Again, doing those NYB blocks was easier than I thought (I've never done anything curved before...). So, right now I'm working on some pieced border to change the shape of the quilt from square to rectangular.

I guess if you do it like me and just do one part at a time it's not half as scary as it looks! What scares me a bit, though, is thinking about how to hand-quilt the top once it's done... But let's take it one step at a time!
