DON"T give up especially if the ladies are all nice and helpful and don't intimidate you. They all had to have had a start also. You have to start somewhere and i am sure as you complete it you will see how you have improved from the beginning block to the end block. I get frustrated at times with my cutting exactly. But all my quilting friends keep encouraging me. So don't give up and continue on. And with all those experienced ladies helping you it can only be a win win situation. Best of Luck
