I started a quilt kit 2 or 3 days ago, but only begin to cut last night. My pattern used batiks, and it named colors to use for certain blocks. The colors were so close in color I couldn't tell which were which. After reading the directions 3 or 4 times, I took the picture and reprinted it, so I could draw out the design with a thin marker. It made it a lot easier for me to understand. I started cutting last night and will begin to sew this afternoon. Take it slow, 1 step at a time, in the order that they tell you, and you will do fine. I feel your anxiety though.
