My 1st quilt (8 yrs ago) was a SunBonnet guilt, from a book. I was so discussed in the end it was packed away. Have not been interested in quilting again until last Feb when I took a class. Now I'm absolutely hooked & all my frustrations in the past are gone. I showed the Sun Bonnet quilt to my teacher & she loved it so I paid someone to do the quilting & it turned out beautiful. For me the instruction from books were hard to understand & the class was well worth the cost (6- 3 hr classes for $45.00). Now I'm a happy quilter, I finish one project & next day start the next.
