I've bought several quilt kits and find that I need to be extremely careful in cutting since most kits don't have a lot of extra fabric. Have been pleased with the quality of the material. The only one that was a "boo-boo" is one that a bought in batiks. Later learned that batiks should always be machine pieced and quilted. The quilt top is in a bag at the back of the closet waiting to be quilted or something. I learned a valuable lesson but since I'm a newbie I didn't realized that batiks are very hard to hand piece and hand quilt.
