I did one large quilt following her book for directions. It worked fine and the finished product was fine--It does involve quite a bit of hand sewing when you put the pieces together--the backing is hand sewn as the sections are joined. I encourage you to try it.

I just found that the quilting part was not my cup of tea and I tend to send my big quilts out to a LAQ--I am blessed with one who is very reasonable in her prices and has short turnaround time.
