Thanks Rob! The curvy triangles are 3D. You fold a square in half diagonally, and then sew it into the edge of the block during assembly. The folded edge then floats, and it is folded back and (hand)stitched to make the curve (kind of like a cathedral window). The quilt took 4 1/2 years - very quick to assemble, but the handstitching took me years to finish, because I hate doing that. And then the quilting - hardest part was staying away from those floating edges
