yours looks good to me and your dd has great taste!
Jump right in ~ try 'em! I marked my lighter fabrics (backside) lightly with a mechanical pencil... 1/4" inch from each cut... that reminded me of where to stop. Then I hand-tied each thread ending (because this was my first attempt, didn't want it to unravel). Worked like a charm until my last two pieces being set-in... then I realized that I had gone a couple extra stitches, and that was mucking that whole corner, and causing a big old pucker. Popped those stitches, redid that seam, and it went in like a charm.
