Ogee/Curlicue Quilt Along

Both Julie and I are planning to participate in the Curlicue Quilt Along over at PickleDish.. and I'm superbly excited! The pattern is curvy and wavy and reminds me of those vintage hanging birdcages that are so ornate.

Lesly is hosting a giveaway of the pattern - three winners! - right now, and the quilt along will start soon. I plan to use Sunkissed for mine, which is a bit less high-contrast, but I have a bit of a plan involving that birdcage inspiration that I might just throw in at the end, so I'm hoping it comes out as gorgeous as the original!

Who is up to joining in with us? We'll both be posting our progress as the weeks go by. The front requires 20 fat quarters, and Lesly posted a rough timeline today, as well as a link to the Flickr group... I hope some more folks join in with us!

I am really struggling with this pattern! I have all the pieces cut now how do I sew them together? I feel like I'm doing everything backwards! Help
