Just remember to sew each strip from the opposite direction to keep it from getting wavy. You should be fine with this pattern. Your daughter will love it!

Thank you for the tip! I have no idea what it means (LOL) but I will check out video tutorials for it. Sounds like one of those things you have to see to get. TY!
