I've done a drunkards path before and it was WAY out of my comfort zone. I just kept going. It wasn't perfect and I didn't fuss with it. The next one I did, I raw edged the smaller pieces onto the larger one so the one layer frayed. I clipped the edges around it and washed it right away. That way was much easier and I love the soft look it gave to it. I just love the fabrics you are using and your quilt will be so worth it after you finish it. It's beautiful so far.
