When I did a one block wonder and read the instructions it sounded hard. To me the instructions are always confusing. OBW is really and easy quilt. When you stick your pins thru the fabric to line the fabric up just make sure you stick the pins thru straight. Pick it up by the ins and jiggle the fabric to line it up. It is easier if someone helps you but not necessary. Use the flat head pins someone suggested. Really easy fun quilt. 2 of us at the LQS made ours out of the same fabric and they look totally different. Hers even looks like a different color than mine
