I have looked at all the pretty fabrics and have decided maybe I have bitten off to much this soon? I'm just so afraid I'll do something (cut) and it be wrong! Do they give a little extra fabric just in case I mess up?

So, when you start a kit what are the steps you take from the minute it arrives and you have inspected it?
