YBR was my first quilt too, and I can guarantee there's no way to really mess it up, or I would have found it. If it's hard to sew at home because of distractions and space, you might be able to do your sewing at the quilt shop. Many shops let quilters come in and use their facilities. Often there's a small charge, but then you also get expert advice from the quilt shop owner. Another possibility is to sew with a guild or other sewing group. If you have a definite time and place it may be easier to get motivated. Be sure to post a picture when you're finished!
