tortoisethreads - think of it this way - it's a learning experience. You can always remake a block if you don't like it! And if you think you're a "novice" by the time you finish, you'll be an "expert" :)
It's a journey about the process. I've grown a lot with what I've done so far. You can make one block, or all. Just try - you'll never know until you try!
