Beautiful quilt! You did a great job. Thanks for sharing the picture and all the information.

This is fantastic. I love it! Great job!

Mmmmmmm! Doesn't that just look like fun. I just read your disclaimer, but it still looks pretty complicated to me. Sign me "chicken". Sure made a very interesting and pretty quilt.

I have loved all the quilts you have posted. They are different which I love. Thanks for the inspiration. I just ordered the book from the library.

Really?!?! That is good news to me. I much prefer peicing over applique and am not afraid of curves. Currently working on an adaptatin of NYB and that has two double curved pieces in it. I bet I can use the template that I have to piece it then as it does have the seam allowance already added for turning under. I would much rather just cut and piece than prep all those applique pieces - all that pressing under and gluing down takes a really long time. The pattern is as you describe, only 4 units and also gives instructions of squaring up the block after it is put together.

I will give it a shot on a sample block. I may just get this thing done sooner then I thought. Thanks so much for your feedback on it.

Very fancy. I've never seen that block before.

this is really unique!

Wow! All those curves would scare me to pieces. You did a wonderful job. Beautiful quilt.
