I would watch Sharon Schamber's video's on You-tube for how to do the Y seams.She shows it in a way everybody can understand and do.And it's easy,and very accurate.And Lea Day on U-tube started out with a non beginner quilt,and won ribbons at the fair.So,it really depends on how you've done your homework.If you've studied a lot,sewed before,and learned from books and videos,then you most certainly could take it on.But if you haven't the foggiest notion of anything about quilting,or no sewing experience at all,then no.Not for that type of beginner.You'll only end up frustrated and aggravated and throw the towel in,when if you do an easier one,even start out on pot holders,then place mats,then lap quilt,then one for your bed.And 'finish' every one before starting the next one 'You'll enjoy it so much more and will love it.It gets addictive.And come back with any and all questions as there is a wealth of knowledge here on the board and they are always ready and willing to help anybody starting out,Intermediate,or a pro even sometimes needs help too.We all need help at some point.And there are no silly questions,only questions that have an answer.Good luck
