I too just joined the "diver's club" and jumped in and managed an 18" block with curved piecing on the four corners. I was amazed at the ease of sewing the round to the curve. I did have a picture in my mind of someone's instructions that said "be sure and put a pin at each end and one in the middle and you will have no trouble".

I love New York Beauty style blocks. They are a mix and match kind of design. Even if you use the same sections but in different fabrics, they'll all look different. Awesome! Plus they are a great way to use up scraps.
