I failed to add to my earlier response that it took me 9 months to make my quilt, at least 3months to cut and sew the top. I would not encourage you to start if you don't have more time. If that is what you want to do wrap up a block and give as a gift in progress get rid of the pressure!

i've been wanting to make one for years. with the solid arcs but still dont want to hand cut. i have the fabric and can't wait till i can save enough for the accu die. go for it. usually if you think you can do something, you can.

I just watched this from Kaye and will pass on to my friend that had templates and was having a hard time for her sisters quilt, Needless to say her sister did not get that DWR but a different pattern. Thank You.

Quilt Smart makes a fusible foundation kit that you might also want to check out.

Hope this helps.

I made mine from the Quilt Smart kit and it was very simple. The fusible product can be puchased at your LQS and so you can make any size--not just what the kit allows you to make. I made mine using the 30s fabric and love the way it turned out. The template is included in the kit and the cutting and sewing is very easy since the fusible product has the exact curve you need. If I knew how to post pictures on here, I would post a picture for you.
