Good luck, it's a beautiful pattern.
I was going to suggest this too. I haven't made one yet, but this quilt is definitely on my bucket list and I've been thinking about how I want to do it for a while now. I bought an English paper piecing kit to make it with, and then decided I wasn't crazy enough to tackle all of those sometimes teeny-tiny triangles by hand (over 1,400 pieces in the kit!
). Foundation paper piecing is just not my thing, so I pretty much landed on doing it with the Deb Tucker rulers, especially because making blocks a bit bigger and cutting them down is pretty much how I work anyway.
However you decide to do it, it is a beautiful quilt!
