I did my Storm at Sea as traditional piecing. If I did it again, I'd probably do the diamond shaped unit as paper piecing. In the guild show mine was in there was another Storm at Sea, the other quilter did do paper piecing and instead of a diamond used triangle units. It also was brighter and more modern fabrics.
Edit: Forgot the part about how I put all the first round of the long skinny triangles on all the diamonds and sewed them wrong. So then I took them off and proceeded to sew them wrong again! All I can say is that it was a learning experience and my vision was better in those days...
Did this about 20 years ago now, was visiting and snapped a picture as it hung over the stairwell. This was queen sized and sewn and quilted on my little old vintage machine.
