No, I haven't tried that yet Sewbizgirl, but I have watched many videos on it and bought a book on it.
How do you find it time wise, compared to making a quilt the traditional way. I remember someone posting on here about it taking much longer. Is that true? Quilting individual blocks would certainly be a joy and I have thought about that. I always worried about the stability of the blocks at the joining points. That may be a baseless concern.
