I believe GF is a relatively easy pattern to put together, and I do know that there are patterns for the background/fan joining that are pieced, not appliqued (I hope that makes sense...). You may need to check an older publication for one of those if you don't already have the pattern.
Otherwise, why don't you put one block together and see how it comes out? That way you don't get too involved in a project you may not care for and that may not work for you in the long run.
Best of luck and happy sewing!

Now that I look at the pattern more...I guess she did applique the completed fan onto a square block - DUH. :oops: I'm hoping she left a pattern in one of the many pizza boxes that ended up at my sister's house in KY. When we go in I have to go thru all those boxes to see what's there. Everytime she would start gathering for a new quilt she would start a new pizza box. I would say my sister has 20-25 pizza boxes stored. :shock:

I am making one as we speak. I had some nickel packs that I had ordered from Clotilde and just started cutting out blades. I have completed thirteen(sp)dredens in just two evenings while watching TV with my DH. easiest block I have ever made. The only thing that has slowed me down is that i ran out of the nickel squares and I am waiting for the order that I placed yesterday.
