Thanks Kristen, I thought I was the only one that was having problems. I was so frustrated, I was ready to throw in the towel and say "No Way". Finally decided to try one more time. I laid out the pieces to form the picture of the quilt and sewed it together that way. Instructions just didnt get through to me. Once I got the strips together piecing the strips went fast. Also squareing up the blocks helped the assembly too.

I just had a problem understanding the instructions at one part which created a real problem for me. DUH !
I found the instructions confusing in parts too, but once I had made the first one they went a lot smoother from there. I also found laying out the pieces in their rows really helped.
