Hahahaha I'm cracking up here. This tutorial is for "beginners"?? I'm still fairly new to quilting, but I wouldn't quite consider myself a beginner (just because I am familiar with terms and techniques and have a few quilts under my belt - still LOTS to learn though, of course) maybe I`m a novice quilter...
Anyway. If a TRUE beginner tried to do that, they would never, ever quilt again.
I agree that it reads like a poor translation.
