This is only my second quilt top that is bigger than a baby quilt and it was MUCH easier than it may look now! :) The inspiration for the middle comes from this picture: http://www.missrosiesquiltco.bigcart...rie-pdf-no-470 That part was REALLY easy! (it's mainly just four patches).
Then I decided to set the block on point and add the corners. Again, doing those NYB blocks was easier than I thought (I've never done anything curved before...). So, right now I'm working on some pieced border to change the shape of the quilt from square to rectangular.
I guess if you do it like me and just do one part at a time it's not half as scary as it looks! ;) What scares me a bit, though, is thinking about how to hand-quilt the top once it's done... But let's take it one step at a time!
