Is it hard to do something like that? It just looks really complicated and time consuming.
Not really. Just mark up your top with say the clamshells (soft curves), use a walking foot and go slow. Then you could even do waves in your solid pieces. Just try to stop your machine in needle down to make turning at the end easier.

Remember always to try to learn something new. Don't just stay in the box because of a fear. Go for it!!!!
