This!! If I see a pattern I like I will learn how to do the technique so I can make it. Set in seams (aka Y seams) are nothing since I made a tumbling blocks quilt. Curved piecing is a challenge but to me, the results are well worth it and not all curves are equal. A tight curve is much more challenging than a gentle one (like the kind in a DWR or orange peel). I will freely admit that applique (not raw edge fusible but all the others, either needle turn or prepared with seam allowance already turned under before sewing it down) is my weakest link but I am continually trying different applique shapes and techniques in the hopes of getting good enough to do some of the tiny intricate ones. I can do simple large shapes with no issues.
